METHOD AND DEVICE FOR THE SELECTIVE EXTRACORPOREAL SEPARATION OF PATHOLOGICAL AND/OR TOXIC BLOOD COMPONENTS

摘要

The invention relates to processes and apparatus employing filter candles with an effective filter surface area of 0.2 to 2 square meters and a mean pore diameter of 0.2 to 2 micron in sterilizable cylindrical housings for the selective extracorporeal separation of precipitates of macromolecular pathologic and/or toxic species from blood or blood constituents, such as whole serum or plasma.
