Popis: To remove nucleic acids from a solution of a cell product used as a drug, water‐insoluble poly(ethyleneimine) (PEI) spherical particles were prepared by suspension cross‐linking with PEI and chloromethyloxirane. The PEI content of the particles was easily adjusted by changing the PEI ratio and the CMO ratio in the cross‐linking. The cross‐linked PEI particles, which had diameters of 44 to 105 µm and PEI contents of 50 to 90 unit mol%, were used as adsorbents. The adsorption of DNA and cell products to the adsorbents was determined using a batchwise method. The larger the PEI content of the adsorbent, the larger the DNA‐adsorbing activity of the adsorbent. The apparent dissociation constant between the DNA (purified DNA from salmon spermary) and the adsorbent, decreased from 8.5 × 10−8 to 9.5 × 10−10 M with an increase in PEI ratio from 50 to 90 unit mol% under physiological conditions (ionic strength (μ) = 0.17, pH 7.2). On the other hand, the adsorbing activity of bovine serum albumin also incre...
