[Comparison of biocompatibility of hemophane, cellulose diacetate and acrilonitile membranes in hemodialysis].

There are significant differences between HP, CD and AN69 membranes concerning complement activation magnitude and leukopenia rate. Modified cellulose membranes HP and CD induce higher C3a concentrations and superior leukopenia rate compared with AN69. Synthetic membrane AN69 proved of higher biocompatibility, with lower efficiency of complement activation.
