3D Printing Insider: 3D Hydrogel for Dialysis
Andrea ma cherie – this is for you 🙂
3D Printed Hydrogel Seeded with Nanoparticles Filters Toxins Similar to Dialysis
(MedGadget) Investigators designed a new 3D printed device that’s made of a hydrogel embedded with detoxifying nanoparticles. These nanoparticles are able to trap toxins and the hydrogel matrix makes sure they stay safely inside the device, until the whole system is removed or disconnected. Until now, nanoparticles accumulated in the liver, creating a risk of secondary poisoning.
