Abstract
Specific adsorbents which selectively adsorb immunoglobulins from blood have been sought in an attempt to utilize them for removal of antibodies and immune complexes in immune diseases.
In vitro and in vivo experiments evidence that some inorganic porous materials adsorb γ-globulin with considerable selectivity. Selectivity of adsorption is improved by chemical treatment of material surface. Compatibility to blood cells is expected to be modified by surface coating with chemical materials.
