Abstract:
Membrane technologies have been applied for therapeutic apheresis. Membrane plasma separation and plasma fractionation are the most common, and hemodialysis and hemofiltration are also used for the combination methodologies of plasma exchange. This article describes the structure, performance, and application of membranes used for apheresis.
