The surface chemistry of biomaterials can have a significant impact on their performance in
biological applications. Our recent work suggests that cerium oxide nanoparticles are potent …

Two nanocomposite types of Cu (tpa) MOFs supported on graphene oxide (Cu (tpa)@ GO)
were prepared by varying the ratio of MOF to GO. These composites were used to produce a …

A systematic study of the zeta potential and isoelectric point of biomolecules such as BSA,
amylase, invertase and phenylalanine has been performed in various salt solutions for …

Protein fouling using bovine serum albumin (BSA) in reverse osmosis (RO) under various
chemical (pH, cation species and ionic strength) and physical (temperature) conditions was …

The intense use of antibiotics and their presence in water bodies has risen serious health
and environmental concerns. Adsorption stands out as a promising method for the treatment …

Adsorption of blood proteins during hemodialysis (HD) triggers activation of biochemical
cascades and reduces treatment efficacy due to membrane fouling. Complement and …

This work focused on the synthesis of a series of sulfonated polyphenylsulfone (SPPSU)
random copolymers with various controlled sulfonation levels by using sulfonated monomer …

To determine further the enhancement and mitigation mechanisms of protein fouling,
filtration experiments were carried out with polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) ultrafiltration (UF) …

In this study, hydrous ferric oxide (HFO) particles were used to modify polyethersulfone
(PES) ultrafiltration membranes, in view of obtaining super-hydrophilic membranes. The …

A systematic study on the zeta potential of polyethersulfone membranes determined by
streaming potential measurements was made to examine various salt effects. Chloride salts; …
