ABSTRACT:
A bio-artificial organ containing a biochemically active matrix is disclosed. The biochemically active matrix includes biochemically active enzyme-containing microcapsules entrapped within a gel matrix. An extracorporeal blood flow can be passed through the organ and over the biochemically active matrix to permit the enzyme to perform its enzymatic function on a substrate in the blood.
