Abstract
Transport analysis of large pore dialysis membranes (KF-101C, Kuraray Co. Ltd.) was performed by the velocity variation method, yielding solute permeability Pm and reflection coefficient o for PEG, Cytochrome-C, and bovine serum albumin. A solute transfer model combining mass balance and pore theory was introduced and its mathematical analysis revealed module efficiency. Further, the performance of membranes with high permeabilty was assessed in clinical use using Csmax as an important clinical parameter.
