- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The degree of protein binding for each of the measured solutes is established by measuring total solute in the PD effluent and then separating protein from the PD effluent and measuring the remaining free level. The difference is the bound solute which is expressed as a percentage of the total<br>[At baseline and 1 month later]
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Bovine Serum albumin is added to the PD effluent at a range of concentrations likely to be achievable with wearable sorbent-based recycling PD. Total,bound and free solutes are measured.This enables the development of a binding curve related to protein concentrations[At baseline and 1 month later]
