Tuning Nanopores in Tubular Ceramic Nanofiltration Membranes with Atmospheric-Pressure Atomic Layer Deposition: Prospects for Pressure-Based In-Line Monitoring of Pore Narrowing

Atomic layer deposition (ALD) is known for its unparalleled control over layer thickness and 3D conformality and could be the future technique of choice to tailor the pore size of ceramic nanofiltration membranes.However, a major challenge in tuning and functionalizing a multichannel ceramic membrane is posed by its large internal pore volume, whic

Differential gene expression in liver and small intestine from lactating rats compared to age-matched virgin controls detects increased mRNA of cholesterol biosynthetic genes

Abstract Background Lactation increases energy demands four- to five-fold, leading to a two- to three-fold increase in food consumption, requiring a proportional adjustment in the ability of the lactating dam to absorb nutrients and to Ski de fond - Homme - Skis - Classic synthesize critical biomolecules, such as cholesterol, to meet the dietary ne
