Polymeric Adsorbents for Plasma Detoxification by engineplus981 is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This study evaluates four different hydrophobic polymeric adsorbents for their effectiveness in detoxifying plasma by removing toxic metabolites associated with acute liver failure. The results indicate that strongly hydrophobic materials with appropriate pore sizes are most effective for the removal of bilirubin, especially when they allow access to protein-bound bilirubin. The research aims to improve extracorporeal systems for liver detoxification, potentially aiding patients awaiting transplantation.
