Popis:	The behaviour of plasma concentrations of the membrane attack complex (MAC) during haemodialysis was studied in 23 patients. An increase in the levels up to 250% of the initial value was noted when Hemophan or Cuprophan membranes were used. Patients dialyzed, with Polysulfon membranes showed only a slight increase in MAC levels. In the Hemophan and Cuprophan group a plateau developed lasting from 15 to 120 minutes after onset of the haemodialysis session. The MAC may serve as marker of biocompatibility. Furthermore, it seems to be involved in many untoward effects of haemodialysis treatment.
