New Macro-porous Ceramics and Glass Filters from Capillary Suspensions

Researchers at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) have developed a novel, simple and potentially cost-saving production process for macro-porous ceramics. The process is based on the use of the capillary effect in a three phase suspension of nano- to micro-sized solid particulates. In this manner, it is possible to fabricate ceramics and polymer foams with macro-pores of diameter 50 nm or greater and narrow pore size distribution.

Research led by Jia Zhou in the Hibbs Lab at UC San Diego has mapped the structures of human brain receptors for the neurotransmitter GABA. The team obtained samples from epilepsy patients undergoing surgery, and used cryo-EM to understand how different protein subunits can assemble in many ways. The study has implications for understanding signaling in the brain and for treating diseases like epilepsy.
