ARC Training Centre for Portable Analytical Separation Technologies. Portable analytical separation systems will enable point-of sample analysis for complex samples in food, environmental and clinical applications. The Training Centre aims to train the next generation of industry-ready Australian researchers through creating a sustainable research partnership between university-based researchers and Australian industry focused on developing new capabilities and technologies that have the potential to facilitate, support, or catalyse the progressive deployment of portable separation science technologies into society. This will enable the development of new, portable and affordable analytical separation systems and contribute to creating a sustainable, globally competitive manufacturing industry in Australia.Read moreRead less
Hierarchically porous polymer monoliths for separation science. Understanding the molecular composition of biomarkers involved in cell-cell communication and the fate of nanoparticles in the environment is critical to improve our understanding of diseases and environmental processes. This project will develop a new approach for the design of separation media that will greatly improve the efficiency of techniques used to analyse these complex samples. The separation media will consist of a polyme ....Hierarchically porous polymer monoliths for separation science. Understanding the molecular composition of biomarkers involved in cell-cell communication and the fate of nanoparticles in the environment is critical to improve our understanding of diseases and environmental processes. This project will develop a new approach for the design of separation media that will greatly improve the efficiency of techniques used to analyse these complex samples. The separation media will consist of a polymer containing large flow-through pores as well as well-defined mesopores. This dual porous skeleton will allow for the size-based separation of biomarkers and nanoparticles. The new separation media will enable the development of new technologies with applications in areas such medicine and environmental science.Read moreRead less
