I am developing a permeable membrane. (1) what is the best technique to determine pore size of the membrane ? (2) how to control the pore size ?
Dear Biplab,
I recommend the following interesting document.

Dear Prof. ACHOUR,
Thank you very much for the link. Though the file doesn't have full pages, still it will be helpful to me.
According to the characteristics of the membrane, such as pore size and material, and testing conditions, such as wet or dry, as well as its applications, there are many different ways to measure the mean pore size of the membrane. I have lots of experience in characterize the pore size of a polymeric membrane for water separation. You can find the details from my publications.
Variable porosity of the mitochondrial inner membrane induced by energization. J.C.Mathai and V.Sitaramam. Biochim. Biophys. Acta 976,214-221,1989.
This is available on Researchgate. It also deals with artificial membranes before going on to apply to mitochondrial membranes.
How to determine the pore size of a permeable membrane?
Pores = protienes
You can moderate the pores by geometric shapes known as cylinder, circle and half-sphere
You can use it as a tool 'logicil comsol' and if you want us to do a common job it is well come
You can use Image J software for particle analysis to determine the membrane pore size.
