Feasibility study and direct extraction of endogenous free metallic cations combining hemodialysis and chelating polymer
Abstract In this article, we report the conception and the use of dialysis-based medical device for the extraction of metals. The medical device is obtained by addition in the dialysate of a functionalized chitosan that can chelate endogenous metals like iron or copper. This water-soluble functional...
