The adsorption properties of cermet and track-etched poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET-TM) membranes are compared with respect to proteins and water-soluble dyes. It is shown that the cermet membranes have a noticeably higher adsorption capacity (calculated per unit surface area) than the PET-TM. In this case, the character of adsorption of these substances on both types of membranes is quite similar and determined by the combination of ionic and hydrophobic interactions. The adsorption values of basic dyes are considerably higher than acid one because of the negative charge at the membrane surfaces. The isotherm of adsorption of the basic dye rhodamine 6G on PET-TM from aqueous solution is characterized by the inflection in the concentration range of lower than 1 mumol/1 due to the presence of highly active adsorption sites on the surface. The adsorption of dyes considerably lowers on adding isopropanol to the aqueous solution. Using basic protein cytochrome C as an example, it is established that its adsorption on cermet membranes can be prevented by increasing solution ionic strength.
