Hemoperfüzyon

Overview

Development of biocompatible sorbents for blood purification and therapeutic applications.

Hemoperfusion is an extracorporeal blood purification technique that removes toxins and other harmful substances from the blood using adsorbent materials. Our research focuses on developing highly selective and biocompatible sorbents for various therapeutic applications.

Historical Note: Prof. Denizli's PhD thesis (1992) was on "Specific Sorbents for Hemoperfusion," establishing our long history in this field.
