Description:
The need to fully heparinize patients undergoing extracorporeal therapy often leads to hemorrhagic complications. To enable heparinization of only the extracorporeal circuit, a blood filter containing immobilized heparinase was developed. This filter degraded 99 percent of heparin's anticoagulant activity within minutes in both canine and human blood.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Langer, R -- Linhardt, R J -- Hoffberg, S -- Larsen, A K -- Cooney, C L -- Tapper, D -- Klein, M -- GM 25810/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1982 Jul 16;217(4556):261-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7089564" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
