Iron oxide nanoparticles improved biocompatibility and removal of middle molecule uremic toxin of polysulfone hollow fiber membranes

Abstract: Middle molecule uremic toxins constitute to a quarter of uremic toxins present in human blood. In a condition where these uremic toxins accumulate in bloodstream due to renal failure, blood purification process using a high performance membrane is required. Here, we develop biocompatible mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) made up of polysulfone (PSf) and iron oxide nanoparticles (Fe2O3 NPs) with the focus to remove middle molecule uremic toxin effectively. The MMMs were evaluated in terms of their biocompatibility … Show more

“…Membrane processes are classified based on their operational driving forces, which further depend on their separation mechanisms, such as sieving [ 38 ], solution-diffusion [ 39 ], adsorption [ 40 ], and electrochemical effects [ 41 ]. Thus, the driving forces include the gradients of pressure [ 42 , 43 , 44 , 45 ], potential [ 46 , 47 , 48 ], and concentration [ 49 , 50 ] across the membrane. Pressure driven membrane processes include MF [ 51 ], UF [ 52 ], NF [ 53 ], and RO [ 54 ].…”

“…Said et al [ 112 ] reported the obtaining of polysulfone membrane functionalized with iron oxide for better biocompatibility and being able to remove the middle molecule uremic toxin effectively. It was shown that even though a high concentration of iron oxide was added, it displayed a reduction of protein adsorption and platelet adhesion while maintaining normal blood coagulation time and admissible complement activation [ 112 ]. Unfortunately, iron oxide nanoparticles have a tendency to form aggregates.…”
