This paper presents a comparative study of cellulose acetate membranes, respectively nitrocellulose membranes, synthesized under the same conditions for the retention of proteins from aqueous solutions. It has also been studied the hydrodynamic behavior of the membranes, measuring water, respectively ethanol flow rates, and the retention of proteins. The membranes have been characterized by scanning electron microscopy in order to study the morphological differences.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
