Now, the team is making its discovery wearable for at-home, overnight dialysis. It's called a graphene oxide membrane, and a full prototype device will be made in the next year, the engineers said.

The effects of the dose of dialysis and the level of flux of the dialyzer membrane on mortality and morbidity among patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis are uncertain. In the standard-dose ...

In the latest graphene-enabled innovation, a team of MIT engineers has potentially revolutionized the process of dialysis by creating a new membrane from this wonder material that is able to ...

Products such as ultrafiltration control, hollow fiber dialyzers, synthetic dialysis membranes and bicarbonate-based dialysate solutions were beneficial, but overall incremental in improving ...

In the article published in the journal Advanced Functional Materials ("High-Performance Hemofiltration via Molecular Sieving and Ultra-Low Friction in Carbon Nanotube Capillary Membranes"), Kidambi ...

“I observed my dad suffering during dialysis sessions, and then we lost him to complications. At the time, I was already a membrane science researcher, and this experience ignited my passion to ...
