Production of Cellulose Acetate Hemodialysis Membrane for Clinical Trials.

摘要

The objective of the program was to determine the reproducibility of manufacture of cellulose acetate hemodialysis membrane and to provide an ample supply for clinical testing at selected dialysis units. Twenty-eight rolls of 16-in. wide membrane (0.0010to 0.0014-in. thick) were manufactured and all met the specifications for uniformity of thickness freedom from imperfections,burst pressure and hydraulic permeability. Of these,four rolls were shorter than the target 850+50ft. Sixteen rolls were distributed at the direction of the Project Monitor to various dialysis units.
