  • Electrospun nanofibrous membrane assembly for use in capturing chemical and/or biological analytes
    Publication number: 20100240121
    Abstract: A membrane assembly adapted for use in capturing an analyte of interest, the membrane assembly comprising in one embodiment (a) an electrospun nanofibrous membrane, the electrospun nanofibrous membrane comprising a random mat of electrospun nanofibers, at least some of the electrospun nanofibers including one or more types of functional groups; and (b) at least one molecular recognition element immobilized on the random mat via a functional group, the molecular recognition element being adapted to selectively bind the analyte of interest. The membrane assembly may be incorporated into a sensor.

  • Non-woven elastic microporous membranes
    Publication number: 20020124953
    Abstract: A breathable net-shape microporous membrane structure is created by forming a polymeric solution and electrostatically spinning polymeric fibers from the solution into a microporous membrane structure. The average fiber size ranges from about 0.1 microns to about 1 micron and the average pore size ranges from about 0.4 to about 3.0 microns.
