Advanced dialysis membranes using atomically thin materials like graphene have been developed, featuring a protein-enabled sealing mechanism. This innovation addresses the challenge of filtering ...

Inside the machine the blood and dialysis fluid are separated by a partially permeable membrane the blood flows in the opposite direction to dialysis fluid, allowing exchange to occur between the ...
