The development of high-performance adsorbents for efficient removal of bilirubin from albumin-rich solution is still a considerable challenge. In this study, a magnetic nitrogen-doped porous carbon (mNpC) was facilely synthesized through a simple one-pot route using the biomass chitosan and the iron salt Fe(NO 3 ) 3 $9H 2 O as precursors, and NaCl as template agent, respectively. Intriguingly, the resulting mNpC material showed a hierarchically micro-meso-macroporous structure, high surface area (289 m ), but also superior to those of many previously reported adsorbents for BSA-boned bilirubin removal. Moreover, as evidenced by hemolysis assay, this material exhibited only a negligible hemolysis effect. These results suggest that the composite developed in this work can be used as a promising adsorbent in blood purification application to mitigate the risk of excess bilirubin.
A novel waxberry-like SiO2@MnSiO3 core–shell nanocomposite was facilely fabricated via the simple one-step thermal treatment of SiO2 nanospheres, MnCl2·4H2O, ethylenediamine (EDA), and ethylene glycol (EG).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
