Cellulose acetate/metal–organic framework composite beads with macroporous adsorption channels as a novel hemoadsorbent for effective virus capture

times in clinical application. Moreover, CNC/MIL-53 exhibited low hemolysis ratios and good anticoagulant properties. Furthermore, molecular dynamics simulations revealed that the interplay of hydrogen bonding was the governing physisorption mechanism. Overall, CNC/MIL-53 could serve as a new type of hemoperfusion adsorbent for virus removal from blood and provide a new treatment pathway to mitigate epidemics.
