Abstract

The evaluation of the adsorption of methylene blue (MB) in plasma by sulfonated polyethersulfone (SPES) adsorbent column was carried out in this study. The results indicated the adsorption of MB by SPES adsorbent column was more efficient than that by polyethersulfone (PES). In addition, the changes of the concentration of BSA solution passing through adsorbent column along with the time and the biochemical indices of plasma before and after adsorption treatment were also investigated. The results showed that the adsorption amount of BSA by PES adsorbent column was larger than that by SPES, and the biochemical parameters such as total protein, albumin, glucose, triglyceride and total cholesterol in plasma varied slightly before and after passing through the column, which were still within the clinical indices.
