Abstract High levels of urea and creatinine in the blood are a sign of decreased kidney function. To remove these substances from the blood, hemodialysis which utilizes membranes could be used. In this study, a molecularly imprinted membrane (MIM) was synthesized for the selective transport of urea. The synthesis is initiated with the polymerization of eugenol into polyeugenol and then into polyeugenoxy acetate (PA). The PA is then contacted with urea and then used as the functional polymer in the synthesis of MIM with polysulfone as the membrane base, and polyethylene glycol as the cross-linking agent. The result was later analyzed with FTIR and SEM-EDX. The membrane is then used in the transport of urea, creatinine, and vitamin B12 and then compared with the non-imprinted membrane (NIM) performance. By using UV-Vis spectrophotometry, the results showed that the membrane with 10 h heating variation is able to transport more urea and is more selective than NIM; this proves that the urea template on the MIM enables it to recognize urea molecules better than creatinine and vitamin B12. The order of transport from the best results is urea > creatinine > vitamin B12.

AbstractThis paper analyzes the possibility of obtaining the selective transport of microparticles suspended in air in a microgravity environment through modulated channels without net displacement of air. Using numerical simulation and bifurcation analysis tools, we show the existence of intermittent particle drift under the Stokes assumption of the fluid flow. The particle transport can be selective and the direction of transport is controlled only by the kind of pumping used. The selective transport is interpreted as a deterministic ratchet effect due to spatial variations in the flow and the particle drag. This ratchet phenomenon could be applied to the selective transport of metal particles during the short duration of microgravity experiments.

Judiciously designed phthalocyanines (Pcs), such as silicon-Pc bis(3,5-diphenyl)benzoate (1c), with axial substituents which prevent aggregation, can self-assemble to form ordered nanoporous films on electrode surfaces. In this paper, complementary techniques such as Scanning Kelvin Nanoprobe (SKN) microscopy, Atom Force Microscopy (AFM) and electrochemical measurements are used to demonstrate that films formed by silicon-Pc bis(3,5-diphenyl)benzoate allow size- and charge- selective transport of probe molecules through well-defined intermolecular cavities. In contrast, the analogs silicon-Pc bis(4-tert-butylbenzoate) (1a) and silicon-Pc bis(3-thienyl)acetate (1b) have different film morphologies when solvent-cast in the same manner and block the electrode surface. The role of the different axial substituents in orienting the molecules on the substrate is discussed.
