TL;DR: In this article, thin-film composite membranes comprising modified polyamide layers were cast on an ultrafiltration polysulfone support using sequential interfacial polymerization, thus obtaining bilayer membranes with a final layer of polyols at the surface.

TL;DR: Functional G-quartet hydrogels formed from natural guanosine cross linked with benzene-1,4-diboronic acid and Mg2+ support cell growth with no visible signs of gel degradation.

TL;DR: Multivalent recognition of lectin layers by glyconanoparticle sugar-clusters has been used to study the carbohydrate-protein interactions in a QCM sensing setup.

TL;DR: The last developments of artificial supramolecular carriers or channels that selectively transport K+ cations against other cations are discussed, including self-assembled macrocyclic channels that may find interesting applications in chemical separations, selective sensing, and biomedical materials.

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of the chemical composition of hybrid siloxane membranes (nature, geometrical organization of the donor atoms, amount of the grafted complexant, condensation degree of the hybrid Siloxane network) as well as the operating transport conditions (pH gradient, extractant in the permeate) on copper and silver transport were studied.
