Protein adsorption onto ultrafiltration membranes
educational resource
posted on 2019-06-26, 15:29 authored by Andrew K. LockleyUltrafiltration, the use of a semi-permeable membrane to facilitate the
separation of molecules in solution, is a widely-used process. It is however
far from fully understood in many respects. The relationship between the
nominal molecular weight cut-off ascribed to a membrane by a manufacturer
(90% of spherical, uncharged molecules of this weight should theoretically be
retained) and its behaviour in actual use is not always predictable. Other
physical and chemical properties of the filter may also be of importance.
Ultrafiltration is the result of a variety of subtle interactions between
various components. [Continues.]
