Can humidity assisted tuning of “permeation channels” in graphene oxide membranes be useful for sea water desalination?
Many layered materials (clays, Mxenes) exhibit gradual change in d(001) spacing us a function of humidity with increments smaller than size of water molecule. This effect is not related to size of “permeation channels” in GO membranes according to common structural model of GO hydration.
Safe engineering of therapeutic cells with photothermal nanofibers
Photothermal nanofibers were developed comprised of light-sensitive iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) embedded in electrospun nanofibers. We demonstrated that embryonic stem cells and human T cells, transfected with such nanofibers are in excellent health and retain their therapeutic functionality.
