Adsorption of some bile acids and cholesterol from simulated solutions and body fluids by medical carbons of different origin has been studied in order to elucidate the role of adsorption in cholesterol reduction as well as in prophylaxis and treatment of atherosclerosis by orally applied carbon adsorbents. Oxidized carbons modified by different metal cations were tested for the first time for their ability to correct the saline composition of body fluids.
