Supervised Learning for Predictive Pore Size Classification of Regenerated Cellulose Membranes Based on Atomic Force Microscopy Measurements

Nanoporous dialysis membranes made of regenerated cellulose are used as molecular weight cutoff standards in bioseparations. In this study, mesoporous standards with Stokes’ radii (50 kDa/2.7 nm, 100 kDa/3.4 nm and 1000 kDa/7.3 nm) and overlapping skewed distributions were characterized using AFM, w...
