Above video shows the disruption of the membrane from W404 after around 12 hours in the DMEM media (benchtop). The membrane was not treated with UV-Ozone and degraded pretty early as compared to that from W336 which broke at ~28…

15um beads on discolored membrane surface, having some slits where the beads are not found The localization of microbeads suggest that they have fallen across the slits in the membrane Transparent membrane with microbeads on its surface These membranes are…
