Abstract
Hemodialysis (HD) membrane fouling with human serum proteins is a highly undesirable process that results in blood activations with further severe consequences for HD patients. Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes possess a great extent of protein adsorption due to hydrophobic interaction between the membrane surface and non-polar regions of proteins. In this study, a PVDF membrane was modified with a zwitterionic (ZW) polymeric structure based on a poly (maleic anhydride-alt-1-decene), 3-(dimethylamino)-1-propylamine derivative and 1,3-propanesultone. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and zeta potential analyses were used to determine the membrane's characteristics. Membrane fouling with human serum proteins (human serum albumin (HSA), fibrinogen (FB), and transferrin (TRF)) was investigated with synchrotron radiation micro-computed tomography (SR-μCT), which allowed us to trace the protein location layer by layer inside the membrane. Both membranes (PVDF and modified PVDF) were detected to possess the preferred FB adsorption due to the Vroman effect, resulting in an increase in FB content in the adsorbed protein compared to FB content in the protein mixture solution. Moreover, FB was shown to only replace HSA, and no significant role of TRF in the Vroman effect was detected; i.e., TRF content was nearly the same both in the adsorbed protein layer and in the protein mixture solution. Surface modification of the PVDF membrane resulted in increased FB adsorption from both the protein mixture and the FB single solution, which is supposed to be due to the presence of an uncompensated negative charge that is located at the COOH group in the ZW polymer.

Biofouling-Resistant Ultrafiltration Membranes via Codeposition of Dopamine and Cetyltrimethylammonium Bromide with Retained Size Selectivity and Water Flux.

Abstract
Biofouling is a serious problem in ultrafiltration (UF) membrane applications. Modifying the surface of membranes with low molecular weight, commercially available antibacterial chemistries is an excellent strategy to mitigate biofouling. Herein, we report a new strategy to impart antibacterial and anti-biofouling behavior without changing the support membrane's size selectivity and pure water permeance (PWP). To this end, a strong antibacterial agent, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), was codeposited with dopamine onto commercial polyethersulfone (PES) UF membranes in the presence of nitrogen (N2) gas backflow. The PWP and pore size of the support membrane did not change with codeposition, confirming the benefit of N2 backflow in mitigating the solution intrusion phenomenon. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), surface ζ potentials, and contact angle measurements confirmed the successful codeposition of polydopamine (PDA) and CTAB onto the membrane. Among three different CTAB concentrations systematically investigated, the membrane functionalized with CTAB at the critical micelle concentration (CMC) provided the best anti-biofouling activity against Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) and Gram-negative (Escherichia coli) bacteria and retained its surface ζ potential after being stored in 1 M NaCl (pH = 6.8) for 3 months. Our results demonstrate the potential of using a facile, one-step approach to modify commercial UF membranes without compromising their pore size or flux, while simultaneously endowing antibacterial activity.

Abstract
Through etherification reaction, epoxy propyl dimethyl dodecyl ammonium chloride (EPDMDAC) was grafted onto the surface of a cellulose acetate (CA) membrane to prepare a stable nonleaching antibacterial antifouling membrane (QCA-X). The results showed that with the extension of grafting reaction time, the quaternary ammonium salt groups on the membrane surface increased and the hydrophilicity was enhanced. Compared with those of the CA membrane, the filtration capacity and antifouling performance of the QCA-X membrane are improved. When the grafting time is 4 h, the water permeability and flux recovery rate of the QCA-4 membrane are increased by 139 and 21.5%, respectively. The QCA-X membrane showed excellent antibacterial performance, and the sterilization rate against S. aureus and E. coli was more than 99.99%. After four repeated antibacterial cycles, the bactericidal rates against S. aureus and E. coli were maintained at about 99.69 ± 0.02 and 99.98 ± 0.02%, respectively, with good antibacterial persistence. Moreover, the QCA-X membrane can effectively inhibit bacterial adhesion. Mild and simple EPDMDAC grafting modifications improve the antibacterial, antifouling, and antibioadhesion properties of the CA membrane, showing its application potential in long-term water treatment, especially in biofouling water treatment.

Abstract
Since biofouling challenges negatively influence the marine and transportation industries, developing effective antifouling materials have attracted extensive concern. A tyrosine-based antifouling phenolic resin (TPP resin) was synthesized using tyrosine as a natural phenol source. TPP exhibited shell-like surface morphology with micro-ripples and excellent anti-adhesion properties against bacteria and diatom. The micro-ripples surface might be caused by the strong hydrogen bonding or ionic interaction among tyrosine units resulting in microphase separation during the curing process. Tyrosine content in TPP resin has a great influence on the surface properties, morphology and antifouling characteristics. The higher the tyrosine content, the higher is the surface hydrophilicity, the denser and more regular is the micro-ripples morphology, and the stronger is the antifouling performance. TPP-60 % exhibited the best antifouling performance. Combination of the surface hydrophilicity and regular micro-ripples surface morphology afford TPP excellent antifouling performance. TPP resins offer a broad prospect for developing phenolic resin in the antifouling field.
