Femoral arteriovenous extracorporeal carbon dioxide elimination using low blood flow. od Young, J, Dorrington, K, Blake, G, Ryder, W

“...To test this hypothesis, we performed experiments on nine sheep to examine the extent to which CO2 elimination can be achieved at blood flow rates less than 600 mL/min using a 5-m2 hollow fiber membrane lung with countercurrent gas flow, combined with a hemofiltration blood pump, and connected to femoral arterial and venous hemodialysis catheters. RESULTS: CO2 eliminations of 130 to 180 mL/min at standard temperature and pressure were achieved with blood flow rates in the range 470 to 600 mL/min. ...”

Standardization of the human proximal tubule cells and cell culture media for the bioartificial kidney od Teo, Pei Yun.

“...These HPTCs would provide for the immunomodulatory, active transport and endocrinologic functions of an actual kidney which are lacking in the hemodialysis machine, currently used for treatment. However, there is a need for a standardized immortalized HPTC cell source and for the cells to be maintained as a well-differentiated and functional epithelial monolayer. ...”
