| Abstract |
Blood adsorption onto the inside surface of hollow fiber dialysis membranes was investigated by means of time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS) and near-field infrared microscopy (NFIR) in order to evaluate the biocompatibility and permeability of dialysis membranes. TOF-SIMS is useful for the imaging of particular molecules with a high spatial resolution of approximately 100 nm. In contrast, infrared spectra provide quantitative information and NFIR enables analysis with a high spatial resolution of less than 1 μm, which is close to the resolution of TOF-SIMS. A comparison was made of one of the most widely used dialysis membranes made of polysulfone (PSf), that has an asymmetric and inhomogeneous pore structure, and a newly developed asymmetric cellulose triacetate (ATA) membrane that also has an asymmetric pore structure, even though the conventional cellulose triacetate membrane has a symmetric and homogeneous pore structure. As a result, it was demonstrated that blood adsorption on the inside surface of the ATA membrane is more reduced than that on the PSf membrane.

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 25 October 2017.
All research outputs
#19,951,180
of 25,382,440 outputs
Outputs from Analytical & Bioanalytical Chemistry
#6,061
of 9,619 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#236,659
of 324,511 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Analytical & Bioanalytical Chemistry
#64
of 158 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,382,440 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 18th percentile – i.e., 18% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 9,619 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.1. This one is in the 31st percentile – i.e., 31% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 324,511 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 158 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 46th percentile – i.e., 46% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
