Preparation of adsorptive nanoporous membrane using powder activated carbon: Isotherm and thermodynamic studies

Majid Peyravi

Frontiers of Chemical Science and Engineering 2020, Volume 14, Issue 4,   Pages 673-687 doi: 10.1007/s11705-019-1800-9

Abstract: Adsorptive polyethesulfone (PES) membranes were prepared by intercalation of powder activated carbon (PAC) with and without functionalization. Accordingly, PAC was aminated with 1,5-diamino-2-methylpentane, and the physicochemical properties of the functionalized PAC were analyzed. Intercalation of PAC within the PES scaffold changed the porosity and mean pore size of the aminated membrane (AC-NH ) from 52.6% to 92.5% and from 22.6 nm to 3.5 nm, respectively. The effect of temperature on the performance of the modified membranes was monitored by the flux and chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal of leachate. At ambient temperature, the COD removal of the neat, AC-containing, and AC-NH membranes was 47%, 52%, and 58.5%, respectively. A similar increment was obtained for the membrane flux, which was due to the synergistic effect of the high porosity and large number of hydrophilic functional groups. The experimental leachate adsorption data were analyzed by Langmuir, Freundlich, and Dubinin- Radushkevich isotherm models. For all membranes, the significant thermodynamic parameters ( , , and ) were calculated and compared. The isosteric heat of adsorption was lower than 80 kJ∙mol , indicating that the interaction between the membranes and the leachate is mainly physical, involving weak van der Waals forces.

The development of biofabrication technology

Lian Qin,Liu Yaxiong,He Jiankang,Wang Ling,Jin Zhongmin,Li Dichen,Lu Bingheng

Strategic Study of CAE 2013, Volume 15, Issue 1,   Pages 45-50

Abstract:

The concept of biofabrication was provided by School of Mechanical Engineering, Xi'an Jiaotong University since the 1990s. Using the engineering methods to solve the medical issues, we have made some achievements and development on the implants for bone and cartilage, liver, intestinal tissue as well as brain. This paper emphasized on the lastest research work of the customized artificial prosthesis, bioactive bone and joint, and tissue engineered liver in our laboratory, which was corporated with the experts and sciencists of various areas from medicine, biology as well as materials for more than 20 years. Furthermore, it also explored the problems and prospects for the development and application of biofabrication.

An Update on the Efficacy and Functionality of Probiotics for the Treatment of Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Article

Mingfei Yao, Lingling Qv, Yanmeng Lu, Baohong Wang, Björn Berglund, Lanjuan Li

Engineering 2021, Volume 7, Issue 5,   Pages 679-686 doi: 10.1016/j.eng.2020.01.017

Abstract:

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), which has a global prevalence of 20%–33%, has become the main cause of chronic liver disease. Except for lifestyle medication, no definitive medical treatment has been established so far, making it urgent to find effective strategies for the treatment of NAFLD. With the identification of the significant role played by the gut microbiota in the pathogenesis of NAFLD, studies on probiotics for the prevention and treatment of NAFLD are increasing in number. Bacteria from the Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus genera constitute the most widely used traditional probiotics. More recently, emerging next-generation probiotics (NGPs) such as Akkermansia muciniphila and Faecalibacterium prausnitzii have also gained attention due to their potential as therapeutic options for the treatment of NAFLD. This review provides an overview of the effects of oral administration of traditional probiotics and NGPs on the development and progress of NAFLD. The mechanisms by which probiotics directly or indirectly affect the disease are illustrated, based on the most recent animal and clinical studies. Although numerous studies have been published on this topic, further research is required to comprehensively understand the specific underlying mechanisms among probiotics, gut microbiota, and NAFLD, and additional large-scale clinical trials are required to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of probiotics for the treatment of NAFLD, as well as the safety of probiotics in the human body.
