  • Title: [Comparative evaluation of cuprophane and cellophane used as membranes for hemodialysis].
    Author: Rudman AR, Vengerova NA, El'tsefon BS.
    Journal: Med Tekh; 1976; (4):31-5. PubMed ID: 1025438.
    Abstract:
    Investigations into the structure, mechanical properties and permeability of the Soviet-made cellophane, cellulose film No 100 and cuprophane have shown the Soviet-made cellophane membrane to be inferior to cuprophane with regard to the strength and permeability of low-molecular metabolites. High strength properties of the cellulose film No 100 go with a much more lower permeability than in the case of cuprophane and cellophane. Sterilization with gamma-irradiation does not have any material effect on the physico-mechanical and functional characteristics of the membranes. Ways and means for improving the strength and permeability of the hydrate-cellulose membranes are outlined.
