22. A dialysate regeneration chamber configured to generate refreshed dialysate from toxin-laden dialysate, the dialysate regeneration chamber comprising:
-
a dialysate regeneration fabric configured to selectively effect substantial uptake of toxins from the toxin-laden dialysate to form a refreshed dialysate, the dialysate regeneration fabric further configured to minimize uptake of non-toxins; and
an outflow for release of the refreshed dialysate. - View Dependent Claims (23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32)

33. A method of generating a toxin trap, the method comprising:
-
oxidizing a fiber; and
attaching a fatty acid to generate an ion-selective barrier, wherein the fatty acid extends away from the activated carbon fiber. - View Dependent Claims (34, 35, 36)
