What are the easiest ways to determine sieving coefficients of hemodialysis membrane?

Hello!

I’d like to test the hollow fiber hemodialysis membrane (PSF/PVP) we’ve made in our lab.

What are its main characteristics we should follow (like sieving coefficients of urea, albumin, creatinine)?

Can you advise any easy methods to investigate its sieving coefficient?

Maybe are there any articles you suggest to read?
