  1. 26. Modification of nanocellulose for blood purification

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Nanoteknologi och funktionella material

    Author : Hampus Hahne; [2016]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This reports treats chemicalmodification of nanocellulose with aimto employ it in dialysis. Themodification steps consists of oxidizingand sulfonation reactions. Infra-redspectroscopy, BET surface area analysisand zeta potential was used tocharacterize the modified nanocellulose. READ MORE

  3. 27. On-line Verification of Hemodialysis Water Quality

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Johan Andersson; Elin Holmström; [2016]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Renal diseases are an increasing problem worldwide and when kidney transplantation is not possible, dialysis treatment is the solution. An increasing number of patients choose to perform their dialysis treatment at home by implementing the dialysis machine and a water purification system in current electric and water supply, so called home hemodialysis.

  4. 28. Estimation of dialysis treatment efficiency by means of system identification

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för reglerteknik

    Author : Johan Larsson; [2014]
    Keywords : System identification; pseudo-random binary sequence; PRBS; Kalman filter; hemodialysis; dialyzer; modelling; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : When treating patients suffering from renal failure with hemodialysis, an obvious point of interest is the actual blood cleaning efficiency of the dialyzer (artificial kidney). This efficiency is called clearance or dialysance. The method currently used for estimating clearance is based on doing a step-change on the process. READ MORE
