Dialyze (verb) refers to the process of removing waste, excess water, and impurities from the blood by means of a dialysis machine or a similar system. The term is commonly associated with medical procedures such as kidney dialysis, which serves as a substitute for proper kidney functioning.
During dialysis, a person’s blood is drawn out of the body and passed through a filter called a dialyzer or an artificial kidney. This device is responsible for filtering the blood, removing waste products, and balancing electrolyte levels. The purified blood is then returned to the body. Dialysis helps regulate blood pressure, maintain proper levels of minerals like potassium and sodium, and eliminate toxins that would typically be removed by healthy kidneys.
The term "dialyze" can also be used more broadly to describe the act of separating or purifying substances, such as fluids or solutions, using a semi-permeable membrane. In chemistry, dialysis can be used to separate molecules of different sizes by allowing smaller particles to pass through while retaining larger ones. This process is frequently employed in various laboratory techniques, particularly to purify and concentrate solutions.
Overall, the act of dialyzing involves the cleansing or separation of a substance, particularly blood or solutions, using the principle of diffusion and semi-permeability.

To perform dialysis, to separate a substance from a solution by means of dialysis.
A practical medical dictionary. By Stedman, Thomas Lathrop. Published 1920.
The word "dialyze" comes from the Greek word "dialusis", which means "dissolution" or "separation". It is formed by combining the prefix "dia-" (meaning "through" or "across") and the root "lusis" (meaning "loosening" or "release"). In English, the term "dialyze" was first used in the late 17th century to refer to a process of separating substances through a membrane. Later, it became specifically associated with the medical procedure of dialysis, which involves removing waste products from the blood through a filtering system.
