@Book{1970767383, author="Dominik, Adrian", title="Non-biological liver support -- improved", year="2020", address="Germany; Rostock", abstract="This dissertation examines how non-biological liver support systems can be improved for patients with acute or acute-on-chronic liver failure. It focuses on albumin dialysis, which removes toxins from the blood, and compares newer membranes and sorbents with the established MARS system. The main findings are that larger-pore membranes can improve removal of some albumin-bound toxins and certain cytokines, and that a newly developed micro-charcoal adsorbent performed better than standard MARS adsorbents by increasing albumin binding capacity and removing toxins more effectively.", school="Universit{\"a}t Rostock", note="vorgelegt von Adrian Dominik", note="Der Volltext der Zeitschriftenartikel ist nur in der Druckausgabe vorhanden", note="GutachterInnen: Jan Stange (Universit{\"a}tsmedizin Rostock) ; Georg Lamprecht (Universit{\"a}tsmedizin Rostock) ; Hermann Haller (Universit{\"a}tsmedizin Hannover)", note="Dissertation Universit{\"a}t Rostock 2022 Kumulative Dissertation", doi="10.18453/rosdok_id00005485", url="https://purl.uni-rostock.de/rosdok/id00005485", url="https://doi.org/10.18453/rosdok_id00005485", language="English" }
