title: [Experimental development of hollow cellulose membranes for blood detoxification].
abstract: In recent years there have been repeated demands in medical circles for new membranes for various purposes. At present attention is focussed on the development of membranes for the detoxification of blood. Using available technology and resources, it seemed appropriate to develop such hollow membranes out of cellulose by the viscose process. It is possible to give the membrane a suitable structure according to the use intended. The transport of matter and ultrafiltration can be influenced by varying the influence parameter in the spinning process via changes in the pore structure. In this way it is possible to produce hollow membranes for dialysis or ultrafiltration, with varying grades of permeability, out of cellulose by the viscose process.
