Immunoadsorption

Immunoadsorption is the technique by which pathogenic substances, especially undesirable antibodies, are removed from blood plasma. It is considered to have fewer adverse effects than the use of therapeutic plasma exchange. Several medical conditions, such as multiple sclerosis and chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) may use immunoadsorption as part of their medical regimen.
