Abstract:
A process for producing porous cellulose beads of the present invention is characterized by comprising the steps of a) mixing an alkali aqueous solution and cellulose to prepare cellulose micro dispersion at low temperature, b) adding water to the cellulose micro dispersion to prepare cellulose slurry, and d) bringing the cellulose slurry into contact with coagulation solvent. A carrier for ligand immobilization of the present invention is characterized by being by shrinking polysaccharide porous beads not less than 10% by a shrinkage rate defined by the following formula, and crosslinking the polysaccharide porous beads: Shrinkage rate (%)=(1−V2/V1)×100 (wherein, V1 indicates the gel volume of polysaccharide porous beads before shrinkage, and V2 indicates the gel volume of polysaccharide porous beads after shrinkage).

Abstract:
The objective of the present invention is to provide a method for effectively and easily reducing an amount of a specific impurity in a liquid. The method for reducing an amount of a nucleic acid in a liquid according to the present invention is characterized in comprising the steps of contacting the liquid with a water-insoluble magnesium compound to adsorb at least a part of the nucleic acid on the water-insoluble magnesium compound. Also, the objective of the present invention is to provide an adsorbing filter useful for purifying a useful substance, such as an antibody and an antibody-like molecule, used as a purification material for effectively removing an impurity with easily maintaining the yield of the target substance due to excellent adsorption ability to a nucleic acid and low adsorption ability to an antibody, an antibody-like molecule or the like. The adsorbing filter is characterized in comprising the layer comprising a water-insoluble magnesium compound.
Abstract:
The objective of the present invention is to provide a method capable of efficiently removing an impurity from an aqueous solution or a suspension comprising an antibody or an antibody-like molecule and the impurity. The method for purifying an antibody or an antibody-like molecule according to the present invention is characterized in treating an aqueous solution or a suspension comprising the antibody or the antibody-like molecule and an impurity with a water-insoluble inorganic compound, wherein the water-insoluble inorganic compound comprises one or more elements selected from magnesium, calcium and aluminum.
