Worms and Beans
In my new workplace, I'm curretly involved in making laboratory scale membranes. Now for those not familiar with membranes, the scientific authority www.dictionary.com, defines it as :
- Chemistry. A thin sheet of natural or synthetic material that is selectively permeable to substances in solution.
I admit I was the one that put in the word 'selectively' because even though dictionary.com IS the scientific authority, sometimes their description is'nt concise enough. For a more recognizable example of membranes, all of us, yes even those of you who think you are different from the rest, have cell membranes around most of our cells. An accurate diagram of such a cell membrane taken from a Super Powerful Atomic Microscope (SPAM) is shown below.


Even then, my senior claims that manufacturing a working version of this will probably take up a year or so. Wait till I show him the purple worms and blue seaweed.
We'll be here forever.
