Customising cell monolayer for optimal solute clearance in artificial kidney by Sangita Swapnasrita

Customising cell monolayer for optimal solute clearance in artificial kidney by Sangita Swapnasrita, MERLN Institute for Technology driven Regenerative Medicine.
Cultivating monolayer on dialysis fibres is a difficult part of making a bioartificial kidney. We can design custom cell layers to ease fabrication and provide comparable solute clearance as a cell monolayer during dialysis. In this figure, we show many custom designs that can achieve similar clearance as a monolayer.
