Cylendrical Dialyzer Fresenius F6 F8 FX8, for Hospital, Color : Transperent, White

Listing ID #5328972

fresenius polysulfone® — a synonym for biocompatibility

• adverse interactions between blood and material arising during the dialysis treatment have been related to a variety of clinical symptoms
• it has become increasingly evident that not all dialysis membranes are the same with respect to their ability to activate blood cell components1
• ever since its introduction, fresenius polysulfone® has been recognized for its biocompatibility and was an established benchmark for all membrane improvements and developments 2,3,4,5 

safety during each and every treatment

• all fresenius medical care dialyzers provide a high degree of safety during each and every treatment
• the high endotoxin retention capabilities of the fresenius polysulfone® are attributed to the chemical composition and structure of the membrane

enhanced design for maximum efficiency

• the special undulating structure of the hollow fibers delivers an excellent performance profile
• spacing between the wavy fiber structures keeps the individual fibers apart, preventing dialyzate channeling and facilitating a uniform flow of dialyzate within the fiber bundle
• the consistent dialyzate flow around each fiber ensures every single performs at maximum efficiency, resulting in enhanced solute transport

inline steam sterilization – how it works

1. both the blood and the dialysate compartment of the dialyzers are rinsed continuously with steam at a temperature at or above 121°c for a minimum of 15 minutes. Rinsing with hot steam and without chemicals results in extremely low levels of residuals in the dialyzer
2. the dialyzer is rinsed with sterile water
3. every dialyzer is tested for fiber integrity using a bubble-point test
4. the dialyzers are dried with warm, sterile air
5. finally, after drying the blood inlet and outlet ports are closed

inline steam sterilization – the benefits

• highly pure, sterile and pyrogen-free dialyzers without any potentially harmful residuals from sterilization
• biocompatibility of membranes remains unaffected from sterilization
• optimized use of resources due to low rinsing volumes: only 500 ml is required
• dry dialyzers with minimized risk of contamination due to microbial growth
