Water channels are one of the key pillars driving the development of next-generation
desalination and water treatment membranes. Over the past two decades, the rise of …

This Review explores the dynamic behavior of water within nanopores and biological
channels in lipid bilayer membranes. We focus on molecular simulation studies, alongside …

Nature has protein channels (eg, aquaporins) that preferentially transport water molecules
while rejecting even the smallest hydrated ions. Aspirations to create robust synthetic …

Transport of water across cell membranes is a fundamental process for important biological
functions. Herein, we focused our research on a new type of symmetrical saccharide rim …

Artificial water channels mimicking natural aquaporins (AQPs) can be used for selective and
fast transport of water. Here, we quantify the transport performances of peralkyl‐carboxylate …

Artificial water channels (AWCs) are known to selectively transport water, with ion exclusion.
Similarly to natural porins, AWCs encapsulate water wires or clusters, offering continuous …

Natural Aquaporin (AQP) channels are efficient water translocating proteins, rejecting ions.
Inspired by this masterpiece of nature, Artificial Water Channels (AWCs) with controlled …

Achieving superfast water transport by using synthetically designed molecular artifacts,
which exclude salts and protons, is a challenging task in separation science today, as it …

Membrane-based technologies have a tremendous role in water purification and
desalination. Inspired by biological proteins, artificial water channels (AWCs) have been …

Artificial water channels (AWCs) and their natural aquaporin counterparts selectively
transport water. They represent a tremendous source of inspiration to devise biomimetic …
