摘要:
The present invention concerns an apheresis material or adsorbant and a method for removing, depleting or inactivating MIF (macrophage migration inhibitory factor) from blood, blood plasma, blood serum or other body fluids. The present invention is also concerned with the use of said apheresis material or adsorbant. In order to prepare a novel means and novel method, which can reduce the activity or amount of the mediator for sepsis and septic shock, MIF, in a patient's body fluid in a manner which is more pleasant and tolerable for the patient than prior art means and methods, the invention proposes that the apheresis material or adsorbant comprises a solid carrier material on the surface of which MIF-binding molecules or functional groups are immobilized. The method proposes that the apheresis material or adsorbant be brought into contact extracorporeally with the blood, blood plasma, blood serum or other body fluids.

This invention describes blood treating material having the capacity to selectively remove endotoxin and cytokine inducing substances from blood or plasma by extracorporeal adsorption for therapeutic septic shock treatment. The endotoxin adsorption ligands of the invention are oligopeptides synthesized from amino acids having a pk>7.2 such as arginine, lysine or histidine, using a polycondensation step such that the resultant oligopeptides exhibit a high degree of polydispersity. Also provided are methods and devices using an adsorbent having a polydisperse oligopeptide of the invention immobilized on a solid state support medium for removing endotoxin from the blood of human or animal subject.
摘要:
A separating material formed by a solid substrate having a substrate surface, primary or secondary amines coupled to the substrate surface, and a graft polymer formed on the substrate by covalently coupling the primary or secondary amines with a thermally labile radical initiator and subsequently contacting the substrate surface with a solution of one or more polymerizable monomers. Methods for the extracorporeal treatment of blood, blood plasma or blood serum employing the separating material, for affinity adsorption, ion-exchange adsorption, hydrophobic adsorption, or hydrophilic adsorption employing the separating material, and a separating column employing the separating material are also disclosed.
摘要:
An immobilized enzyme comprises a solid support, an enzyme linked to the solid support and a spacer for coupling the enzyme to the solid support. A method for the production of immobilized enzymes comprises: providing a solid support having amino-functional groups coupled to the support surface; covalently coupling the amino-functional groups with a thermally labile radical initiator; and, contacting the support surface with a solution of polymerizable monomers. The polymerizable monomers comprise functional groups which do not take part in radical polymerization, under conditions where thermally initiated graft copolymerization of the monomers takes place, to form polymer chains on the surface of the support. If the polymer chains do not already comprise primary amino-functional groups, the method further comprises transforming the functional groups in the polymer chains into groups comprising primary amino-functional groups. The method further comprises coupling the enzyme to amino-functional groups of the polymer chains.
