Chitosan nanoparticle diallyl disulfide complex immobilized polysulfone hollow fibre membrane performance for hemodialysis
Aside from the low-flux issue, biocompatibility of hemodialysis membrane is another leading cause of mortality among end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients due to increased oxidative stress and thrombus formation that led to cardiovascular disease (CVD). Hence, the main objective of this study is t...

Aside from the low-flux issue, biocompatibility of hemodialysis membrane is another leading cause of mortality among end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients due to increased oxidative stress and thrombus formation that led to cardiovascular disease (CVD). Hence, the main objective of this study is to develop an antioxidant and antithrombotic polysulfone (PSF) based hollow fibre membrane (HFM) for effective uremic toxins removal. A hydrophilic chitosan nanoparticle (CNP) was first synthesized via ionic gelation method. Using diallyl disulfide (DADS), a novel CNP/DADS complex was formed through simple complexation steps with ionic gelation method. The formation of the nanoparticle complex was confirmed by 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (H-NMR), attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and UV–Vis. An antioxidant, biocompatibility and antithrombotic properties were conducted, where the effect of DADS addition was evaluated. Both CNP and CNP/DADS showed antioxidant activity where the scavenging capacity against nitric oxide (NO) and hydrogen peroxide (HP) was superior in 1.0 mg/ml CNP/DADS with 29.4% and 32.8%, respectively.
