- Abstract
The article presents a study that investigated the separation of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells from peripheral blood with the use of foamed polyurethane (PU) membranes modified with several amino acids. The highest recovery ratio of the cells was obtained using three sheets PU membranes having carboxylic acid groups(PUACOOH) modified with glycine. Results showed that surface-modified membranes having carboxylic acid groups showed a higher recovery ratio of the cells.
