Problems solved by technology

Other disadvantages arise from expensive and complex production methods and the higher production costs associated therewith
[0016] Although the mortality rate of patients suffering from endotoxin poisoning (especially sepsis) has been reduced by the clinical application of the above-mentioned Toraymyxin adsorption module, the death rate of patients suffering from severe sepsis and septic shock despite maximal treatment rate is still very high

Abstract

The invention relates to a sorbent for removing endotoxins from a biological liquid, the sorbent comprising a water-insoluble, porous support and polymyxin which is immobilized on the support, said support having a neutral, hydrophobic surface and the polymyxin being immobilized on the surface of the support via hydrophobic interaction. The sorbent is especially used in extracorporeal blood purification, especially for the treatment of individuals suffering from a sepsis.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a sorbent for removing endotoxins from biological fluids. The sorbent has a porous carrier that is insoluble in water and polymyxin fixed on the carrier. Background technique [0002] Endotoxin is lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in the cell wall of Gram-negative bacteria and is released by cell lysis. In fact, lipopolysaccharide is the most common lipid component in the outer cell membrane of Gram-negative bacteria. Endotoxin is a pyrogenic substance, that is, if the endotoxin reaches the human body in the process of poisoning caused by microorganisms, for example, the infected individual will have a severe inflammatory reaction and fever, and show a systemic effect. The presence of endotoxin in the blood circulation can lead to uncontrollable activation of immune cells and cause imbalance in the coagulation system. Depending on its concentration, it can cause sepsis. The symptoms of sepsis include (but are not limited to) high f...
