Advances in Gas Membrane Products and Processes for Commercial N2 Generation
Generon is a supplier of state-of-the-art air separation membrane technology. While this technology has been commercially available since the early 1980's, new more efficient membranes and modules have improved the economics of membrane generated enriched N2 to make it the technology of choice for onsite generation of N2 for many applications.

The Super Fruit Handbook: Cranberry Juice Alters E-coli Membrane
In the February 2006 edition of Biotechnology and Bioengineering, a published article from Terri Camesano from Worchester Polytechnic Institute Camesano showed that E. coli fimbriae exposed to cranberry juice become compressed. Fimbriae are tiny tendrils on the outer membrane of certain types of E. coli bacteria that is most responsible for the urinary tract infections. Since the fimbriae is compressed this prevents it from binding tightly to the urinary tract, thus greatly reducing its ability to remain in place long enough to begin a UTI.
