Membrane properties are determined by their morphology, which may be symmetric (dense) or asymmetric (dense/porous). Two membrane types based on the poly[(4,4′-oxydiphenylene)pyromelliteimide] (symmetric dense and asymmetric dense/porous) were prepared for a comparative study of morphology, physical properties, and transport characteristics in the pervaporation of methanol/MTBE mixture over a wide range of concentrations including the azeotropic composition. The asymmetric membrane is a good example of improving the transport properties of the polyimide by creating structure composed of a thin dense top layer on the surface of sponge-like microporous substrate. It was found that the use of the asymmetric membrane allows increasing the total flux in separation of azeotropic mixture by 15 times as compared with the dense membrane.

AbstractFluorescence-detected linear dichroism microscopy allows observing various molecular processes in living cells, as well as obtaining quantitative information on orientation of fluorescent molecules associated with cellular features. Such information can provide insights into protein structure, aid in development of genetically encoded probes, and allow determinations of lipid membrane properties. However, quantitating and interpreting linear dichroism in biological systems has been laborious and unreliable. Here we present a set of open source ImageJ-based software tools that allow fast and easy linear dichroism visualization and quantitation, as well as extraction of quantitative information on molecular orientations, even in living systems. The tools were tested on model synthetic lipid vesicles and applied to a variety of biological systems, including observations of conformational changes during G-protein signaling in living cells, using fluorescent proteins. Our results show that our tools and model systems are applicable to a wide range of molecules and polarization-resolved microscopy techniques, and represent a significant step towards making polarization microscopy a mainstream tool of biological imaging.
