Abstract

Studies have shown that protein-bound toxins are related to the progression of chronic kidney disease, and to the generation and aggravation of cardiovascular disease. Indoxyl sulfate, an important toxin in causing reno-cardiovascular syndromes, was chosen as a representative of protein-bound toxins. Experiments in this paper show that zeolite–PES membranes can adsorb 550μg indoxyl sulfate per g membranes. Effects of pH and salts on zeolites adsorption of indoxyl sulfate studies indicate that the adsorption mechanism is likely to be electrostatic attraction.
