The present invention relates to an adsorbent being capable of efficiently removing tumor necrosis factor-.alpha. (TNF-.alpha.) in a body fluid, an adsorber using the adsorbent and a process for adsorbing and removing TNF-.alpha., namely an adsorbent of TNF-.alpha., wherein onto a water-insoluble carrier a compound having a functional group represented by the formula (I): ##STR1## wherein X.sup.- is an anionic functional group, A is a substituent group except for the anionic functional group, n is an integer of 0 to 4 and in case n is at least 2, groups A, the number of which is n, may be the same or different from each other; a process for adsorbing and removing TNF-.alpha., which comprises coming the adsorbent into contact with a body fluid; and an adsorber for adsorbing TNF-.alpha. wherein a vessel having an inlet and an outlet for a body fluid and being equipped with a means for preventing the adsorbent from flowing to the outside of the vessel, is charged with the adsorbent.
摘要:
An adsorbent for a serum amyloid protein, which comprises a water-insoluble carrier and either a compound selected from the group consisting of a compound having an anionic functional group, a polyanionic compound having more than one anionic functional groups, aniline and an aniline derivative, said compound being immobilized onto said carrier, or a group of the formula: --NR.sup.1 R.sup.2, wherein R.sup.1 is hydrogen atom, methyl group or ethyl group, and R.sup.2 is an atomic group satisfying that the value of log P, in which P is a distribution coefficient in a water-octanol system, of a compound of the formula: R.sup.2 H is from 0 to 3.2, said group being bonded to said carrier, and a method for removing a serum amyloid protein from body fluid through a removing apparatus using the above adsorbent. According to the present invention, SA proteins, particularly SAA proteins and SAP proteins can be selectively removed from body fluid without decreasing HDL largely. Besides, the adsorbent can be provided at a low cost.
