Classification and a List of Uremic Toxins

The aim of this study was to explore the possibility to determine the amount of total removed Indoxyl Sulphate (TR_IS) during dialysis session, an optical method utilizing absorbance and fluorescence spectral data of the spent dialysate was used. Eight uremic patients from Linköping, Sweden and 10 from Tallinn, Estonia, were studied during dialysis treatments. Dialysate samples were taken during each treatment and analyzed at a laboratory. Fluorescence and absorbance spectra of the spent dialysate were measured with spectrofluorophotometer and spectrophotometer. The spectral values were transformed into IS concentration using multiple linear regression model from the total material noted as optical method (Opt). IS concentration was estimated using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method as a reference. TR_IS values were calculated. Achieved results were compared regarding mean values and SD and collated with the amount of total removed urea value (TR_Urea) for the same dialysis procedures. Mean TR value ± SD (mg) for urea was 28 947 ± 9 241; TR for IS was 151.4 ± 87.3 estimated by HPLC and 149.4 ± 84.9 estimated by Opt. The TR_IS values were not significantly different (p ≤ 0.05). This study indicates, that it is possible to estimate TR_IS using only spectral values of the spent dialysate and the parameter can be used for quantifying the elimination of protein bound uremic toxins during the dialysis procedure.
