Polymethylsiloxane polyhydrate (PMSPH) is a sorbent designed for binding toxic substances of different nature, pathogens and metabolites in the gastrointestinal tract and their excretion. PMSPH is a homogeneous paste-like mass of white or almost white color, odorless. == Enterosorption, enterosorbents == To remove toxic substances from the body methods of Sorption detoxification are applied based on binding of toxic substances by sorbents: ''Hemoperfusion'' - removal of toxic substances is carried out through the direct contact with blood . ''Enterosorption'' - (innovative method of intestinal adsorbtion) is a method of enteral adsorption based on binding of toxic substances by sorbents. This method has a long history: about 3,000 years ago, substances have been found empirically that are able to bind harmful substances in the gastrointestinal tract. Even in ancient Egypt coal was necessary for external and internal use. Along with coal, clay has also been used since ancient times. Medical properties of coal were noted by healers of the Ancient Egypt, Hippocrates of Cos and his students in the Ancient Greece. Only 2,5 thousand years after foundation of the first famous medical schools on the island of Kos, in the mid 1860s, the name of Hippocrates returned in the history of enterosorption. Hippocratos Yatzidis, a Greek physician added important new elements to the development of active enteral detoxification and, in particular, of enterosorption. In 1982, the term enterosorption was offered to refer to the method of enteral sorption detoxification, while the sorbents used in this method are called enterosorbents. Until the late 1970s coal, clay and other natural sorbents had been used. Side effects caused by the use of coal and other natural clay sorbents have limited their use for a long period. Thus it stimulated the search for new synthetic enterosorbents. As a result PMSPH, a new silicone gelly-like enterosorbent, was created. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Polymethylsiloxane polyhydrate」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
