called nanoporous atomically thin membranes (NATMs), leverage a protein-enabled sealing mechanism to address a key challenge in dialysis technology, which is maintaining high efficiency in ...

The new dialysis membrane developed by her team ... with advanced-control imaging we could see human serum proteins inside membrane channels during the flow like never before.

We can now monitor the flow at every layer of both new and existing hemodialysis membranes, which means we can assess protein deposits on the dialysis membrane surface, accumulation and blockage ...

Conventional dialysis, in which a patient ... practical will require rendering the membranes biocompatible. Unmodified silicon strongly attracts proteins, and thus a silicon nano-pore membrane ...

And proteins don't tend to stick to it. Rode said he and Moghaddam are aiming for membrane replacements just once every few weeks with their new device. "Once somebody goes under dialysis ...

A porous silicon membrane that is a few nanometers thick can quickly filter liquids and separate molecules that are very close in size, researchers at the University of Rochester report in this ...

The dialysis membrane reduced protein efflux and attenuated meat swelling compared to meat in free solution. In addition, dialysis membranes did not inhibit swelling regardless of meat status ...
