Differences in solute removal by two high-flux membranes of nominally similar synthetic polymers.
BACKGROUND Membranes fabricated from nominally similar polymers may be markedly different in chemical composition, morphology and geometry. To examine the relative importance of these factors to dialyzer performance, the removal of small and large uraemic toxins was determined for dialyzers containing 'polysulfone' membranes of different composition and morphology, with and without fibre undula...
متن کاملhigh-flux and low-flux membranes: efficacy in hemodialysis
results the mean kt/v was 1.27 ± 0.28 in high-flux and 1.10 ± 0.32 in low-flux membrane which, these differences were statistically significant (p = 0.017). the mean of urr was 0.65 ± 0.09 in high-flux and 0.61 ± 0.14 in low-flux membrane, which these differences were not statistically significant (p = 0.221). patients and methods forty hemodialysis patients participated in this cross-over clin...
متن کاملVancomycin by High-Flux Hemodialysis Membranes
Levels of vancomycin in serum are traditionally believed to be unaffected by hemodialysis. By both in vivo and in vitro techniques, the effects of a newer, more permeable dialyzer membrane on vancomycin concentrations were investigated. Six patients who were receiving vancomycin and undergoing maintenance hemodialysis with polyacrylonitrile dialyzer membranes had postdialysis levels in serum th...
متن کاملAssessment of household reverse-osmosis systems in heavy metal and solute ion removal in real and synthetic samples
In this study, the efficiency of household reverse-osmosis system (HROS) with and without neutralizer accessory was investigated in both real and synthetic samples. The real samples were collected from rural and urban public drinking-water systems with and without primary refinery treatment. The selected areas were situated in the Kurdistan province, Iran. The HROS model RO100GPD with and witho...
متن کاملEffects of chemical preservation on flux and solute rejection by reverse osmosis membranes
This study investigates the impacts of chemical preservation on the performance of polyamide reverse osmosis membranes with respect to water permeability and solute rejection. Three preservative chemicals, namely formaldehyde, sodium metabisulfite, and 2,2-Dibromo-3-Nitrilopropionamide, were evaluated for membrane preservation at pH 3 and 7. Experimental data show that chemical preservation may...
