Multi-functional hemocompatible porous polymer bead sorbent for removing protein based toxins and potassium from biological fluids

Abstract:

The invention concerns biocompatible polymer systems comprising at least one polymer with a plurality of pores, said polymer comprising a sulfonic acid salt functionality designed to adsorb a broad range of protein based toxins from less than 0.5 kDa to 1,000 kDa and positively charged ions including but not limited to potassium.
