Development of polyimide membrane for gas permeation by Wong, Tian Yong.

“…This was due to the thermal labile PVP acting as a pore-forming agent in the CMS membranes during pyrolysis which provided an enhanced diffusional pathway through the CMS membranes for the gas molecules. Furthermore, increasing the pyrolysis temperature from 400°C to 450°C yielded increases in permeation rates of CO2 and O2. …”

Fouling of reverse osmosis and nanofiltration membranes by biological macromolecules - probing the foulant-membrane and foulant-foulant interactions by Tang, Chuyang.

“…The project investigated the dependence of limiting flux on intermolecular interaction between foulant molecules. It was observed that the limiting flux was directly proportional to the intermolecular electrostatic repulsive force and that conditions enhancing foulant‐deposited‐foulant repulsion resulted in greater limiting flux values. …”

Identification and characterization of angiopoietin-like 4 (ANGPTL4) interacting proteins in wound repair by Mintu Pal

“…Cutaneous wound healing is a complex and highly coordinated process of proliferation and migration of keratinocytes at the wound edge through interactions of different signaling molecules. Growth factors, transmembrane protein integrins and extracellular matrix play an important role in epidermal wound healing process, although the interplay among these proteins is poorly understood. …”
