“…Bilirubin is a normal metabolite of hemoglobin, but it can be accumulated in the blood of patients with severe liver diseases, such as liver failure. , The excessive bilirubin can be transported and deposited in the main organs and nervous systems through blood circulation, causing various symptoms, including coma, epilepsy, mental retardation, brain damage, and even death. , Adsorption-based hemoperfusion, also called “artificial liver”, is a life-saving therapy to reduce the bilirubin level in these patients. − Activated carbon and resin are two major hemoadsorbents used to adsorb bilirubin clinically . However, they are troubled with the problems of low adsorption efficiency, protein fouling, and limited hemocompatibility. − To solve these problems, we have developed metal–organic framework (MOF)-based hemoadsorbents which showed high bilirubin removal, low protein adsorption, and excellent hemocompatibility. , However, considering the stability problems of MOFs, they cannot be used as reusable hemoadsorbents.…”
