Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The classification of proteins is an important technique in the medical and pharmaceutical field, however fouling remains a critical issue to be solved. In this study, we successfully developed low-fouling membranes against proteins by employing the plasma graft polymerization method. The developed technique was effective for the polymeric flat-sheet membranes as well as hollow-type membranes. Furthermore, molecular weight cut-offs of the developed low-fouling membranes were successfully estimated with using dextrans and proteins.
