Provided herein are electrospun or electroblown non-woven fiber membranes, methods of making such membranes and lateral flow diagnostic devices comprising such membranes.

Non-woven fiber membranes

A method of producing a low-lactose milk protein concentrate comprising the steps of providing a starting liquid milk protein concentrate, pre-treating the milk protein concentration by ultra-sonication, and treating the pre-treated milk protein concentration by diafiltration to provide a calcium depleted low-lactose milk protein concentrate. The process of the invention provides a milk protein concentrate with high levels of protein, less than 1% lactose, and a calcium level that is depleted by at least 20% compared with an untreated milk protein concentrate.

Method of producing a low-lactose milk protein isolate

A poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) membrane having a highly porous, reticulated, 3-D structure suitable for lateral flow diagnostic applications is described. Also described is a method for producing a poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) membrane that comprises the steps of mixing a suitable amount of PMMA, a solvent and a optionally one of either a co-solvent or a non-solvent to produce a solution, casting a thin film of the solution onto a support, and removal of the solvent from the solution to produce the PMMA membrane. A lateral flow diagnostic device comprising a highly porous PMMA membrane as a reaction membrane is also described.

Method for the production of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) membranes and uses thereof

The invention provides a sensor assembly embeddable within an oral appliance comprising a sensing means; and a data processing means coupled to the sensing means for processing data obtained by the sensing means; wherein the sensing means and the data processing means are sealed within a deformable layer.
