| abstract |
The invention relates to use of at least one moiety which specifically binds to and selectively immobilizes, at least one known target present in body fluid, by use of an in situ implant, which also forms part of the invention. The implant, which comprises a biologically compatible substrate, to which the at least one moiety is bound by a ligand, traps the target and enables undesired materials to be destroyed locally in situ, or alternatively to be removed and destroyed ex vivo. |
