A Rehological Screening Method for Membrane Modifying Polymers
A rheological method for screening water soluble polymers intended for fouling prevention of membranes is investigated.Viscosity is measured of mixtures between polymers (neutral Dextran T500 positively charged DEAE-dextran and negatively charged dextran sulphate) and proteins (BSA, ovalbumin, pepsin and lysozyme).The method is sensitive enough to detect interactions between the polymers and the p
