Abstract:
The invention concerns methods of removing undesirable molecules from the blood or physiologic fluid; said method comprising contacting said blood or physiologic fluid with a sorbent, said sorbent comprising a plurality of solid forms and comprising a cross-linked polymeric material having a plurality of ligands attached to the surface of said cross-linked polymeric material, comprising (i) zwitterionic moieties, (ii) oligo(ethylene glycol) moieties or (iii) mixtures thereof; said contacting comprising said sorbent sorbing a plurality of said undesirable molecules when said sorbent is administered within a patient's body.

Abstract:
The invention concerns methods of treating blood, blood product, or physiologic fluid to provide at least one of (i) increasing shelf life of the blood, blood product or physiologic fluid, (ii) maintaining freshness of new blood, blood product or physiologic fluid, and (iii) removing undesirable molecules from the blood, blood product or physiologic fluid; said method comprising contacting said blood, blood product or physiologic fluid with a sorbent, said sorbent being primarily in a plurality of solid forms and comprising a cross-linked polymeric material having a plurality of at least one of (1) zwitterionic moieties and (2) oligo(ethylene glycol) moieties attached to the surface of said cross-linked polymeric material.
