Abstract
It has been suggested that resin wettability is advantageous for dietary phosphate binding in the gastrointestinal tract. To evaluate the effect of anion exchange resin wetting properties on in vivo phosphate binding ability, four types of ethylene glycol dimethacrylate cross-linking 4-vinylpyridinium anion exchange resins (EGDMA-4VP) were synthesized.
