Abstract

cytokine removal protein sorption polymer‐derived ceramics carbide‐derived carbons gold nanoparticles
A series of silicon carbonitride ceramics is utilized to obtain hierarchically porous carbide‐derived carbons (CDCs) for cytokine removal. The removal rate of TNF‐α and IL‐6, as two examples of pro‐ and anti‐inflammatory cytokines, is proportional to the surface area of pores larger than the size of the protein molecule.
