Assessment of the association between increasing membrane pore size and endotoxin permeability using a novel experimental dialysis simulation set-up

Assessment of the association between increasing membrane pore size and endotoxin permeability using a novel experimental dialysis simulation set-up

Abstract Background Membranes with increasing pore size are introduced to enhance removal of large uremic toxins with regular hemodialysis. These membranes might theoretically have higher permeability for bacterial degradation products. In this paper, permeability for bacterial degradation products...
