Effects of Current Collecting Methods for Polymer Bipolar Plate of Ultra-Light Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cells [PDF]
In this study, polymer bipolar plates for ultra-light polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) were fabricated. Various methods for current collecting were applied to ensure electron conductivity of the polymer bipolar plates. Direct wire contact

Controlling ion transport through nanopores: modeling transistor behavior [PDF]
We present a modeling study of a nanopore-based transistor computed by a mean-field continuum theory (Poisson-Nernst-Planck, PNP) and a hybrid method including particle simulation (Local Equilibrium Monte Carlo, LEMC) that is able to take ionic ...

Lipid coated liquid crystal droplets for the on-chip detection of antimicrobial peptides [PDF]
We describe a novel biosensor based on phospholipid-coated nematic liquid crystal (LC) droplets and demonstrate the detection of Smp43, a model antimicrobial peptide (AMP) from the venom of North African scorpion Scorpio maurus palmatus.

Tumor-associated Endo180 requires stromal-derived LOX to promote metastatic prostate cancer cell migration on human ECM surfaces [PDF]
The diverse composition and structure of extracellular matrix (ECM) interfaces encountered by tumor cells at secondary tissue sites can influence metastatic progression. Extensive in vitro and in vivo data has confirmed that metastasizing tumor cells can

Bipolar Membranes for Direct Borohydride Fuel Cells—A Review
Direct liquid fuel cells (DLFCs) operate directly on liquid fuel instead of hydrogen, as in proton-exchange membrane fuel cells. DLFCs have the advantages of higher energy densities and fewer issues with the transportation and storage of their fuels ...

An experimental study of polymer electrolyte fuel cell operation at sub-freezing temperatures [PDF]
The ability of polymer electrolyte fuel cells (PEFCs) to startup at subfreezing temperatures is governed by whether it is able to overcome the freezing point (0°C) before product ice prevents the electrochemical reactions. In this work, we experimentally

Application Research on Desalination of Trona Brine by Bipolar Membrane Electrodialysis
The salt in trona brine seriously affects the soda ash recycling in the production process of soda ash, which not only results in low quality of soda ash recycling and wastes resources. Consequently, the trona brine should be desalted.
