Membrane fouling is still a critical issue for the application of ultrafiltration, which has been widely used in water treatment due to its efficiency and simplicity. In order to improve the antifouling property, a new 2D material MXene was used to fabricate composite ultrafiltration membrane with the approach of in situ embedment during the phase inversion process in this study. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), water contact angle, bovine serum albumin rejection and porosity measurements were utilized to characterize the prepared membranes. Due to the hydrophilicity of the MXene, the composite membranes obtained higher hydrophilicity, confirmed by the decreased water contact angle. All the modified membranes had a high bovine serum albumin rejection above 90% while that of the pristine polysulfone membrane was 77.48%. The flux recovery ratio and the reversible fouling ratio of the membranes were also improved along with the increasing content of the MXene. Furthermore, the highest flux recovery ratio could also reach 76.1%. These indicated the good antifouling properties of MXene composite membranes. The enhanced water permeability and protein rejection and excellent antifouling properties make MXene a promising material for antifouling membrane modification.

Bradykinin, a vasodilator, increases permeability to macromolecules in postcapillary venules. Recent studies indicate that vasodilators elevate water flux from frog mesenteric capillaries. Thus we hypothesized that bradykinin would also increase transcapillary water flux. Arteriolar (ac), true (tc), and venular (vc) capillaries were identified within the microvascular network of frog mesentery. Each capillary was cannulated in situ and perfused with control (frog Ringer and 10 mg/ml bovine serum albumin) and then bradykinin test (10(-7) M) solutions. Hydraulic conductivity (Lp) increased across the network (1.8, 5.3, and 11.0 x 10(-7) cm.s-1.cmH2O-1 for ac, tc, and vc, respectively). Bradykinin test Lp normalized to control (LpBKN/LPC) was elevated threefold (n = 37). Lp for ac (n = 12) was elevated 3.5-fold and oscillated with time. Lp for tc (n = 13) increased fivefold within the first 5 min of exposure and then dropped. Lp for vc (n = 12) was not different from control. Location- and time-dependent responses of Lp indicate that capillaries forming microvascular networks have individual responses to bradykinin.
