Adsorbent material
An object of the present invention is to provide an adsorbent material having high dispersibility and reversibility. The adsorbent material has a polymer material having a plurality of functional groups ionizable in water and exhibiting no lower limit critical solution temperature, an adsorption site capable of interacting with a target substance, and a carrier.
1. An adsorbent material, comprising:
a polymer material having a plurality of functional groups ionizable in water and exhibiting no lower limit critical solution temperature;
an adsorption site capable of interacting with a target substance; and
a carrier,
wherein the polymer material is a polylysine, a dendrimer having a plurality of amino groups, a dendrimer having a plurality of imino groups, a polyethyleneimine, a polyallylamine, a polyglutamic acid, or a polymer material having these as a partial structure;
wherein the adsorption site is at least one selected from protein A partial structures or mimetic molecules, protein G partial structures or mimetic molecules, protein L partial structures or mimetic molecules, sugar chain-bonding molecules, thiophilic ligands, and antigens or antigen partial structures; and
wherein the polymer material and the adsorption site are directly bound to each other, or the polymer material and the adsorption site are not bound to each other, but are immobilized at different positions on the carrier.
2. The adsorbent material according to claim 1 , wherein an ionization rate of the polymer material changes in response to a change in an external environment.
3. The adsorbent material according to claim 2 , wherein the change in an external environment is a change in temperature, salt concentration, permittivity or pH of a solution in contact with the adsorbent material.
4. The adsorbent material according to claim 1 , wherein the target substance is a protein, a biomolecule, a cell, a virus or a nanoparticle.
5. The adsorbent material according to claim 4 , wherein the target substance is an antibody.
6. The adsorbent material according to claim 1 , wherein the carrier or a surface thereof has a polysaccharide, a crosslinked polysaccharide, polystyrene, silica or a metal oxide.
7. The adsorbent material according to claim 6 , wherein the carrier or a surface thereof has a polysaccharide or a crosslinked polysaccharide.
8. A method for purifying a target substance, comprising:
contacting a solution comprising the target substance with an adsorbent material comprising,
a polymer material having a plurality of functional groups ionizable in water and exhibiting no lower limit critical solution temperature;
an adsorption site capable of interacting with the target substance; and
a carrier,
wherein the polymer material is a polylysine, a dendrimer having a plurality of amino groups, a dendrimer having a plurality of imino groups, a polyethyleneimine, a polyallylamine, a polyglutamic acid, or a polymer material having these as a partial structure;
wherein the adsorption site is at least one selected from protein A partial structures or mimetic molecules, protein G partial structures or mimetic molecules, protein L partial structures or mimetic molecules, sugar chain-bonding molecules, thiophilic ligands, and antigens or antigen partial structures; and
wherein the polymer material and the adsorption site are directly bound to each other, or the polymer material and the adsorption site are not bound to each other, but are immobilized at different positions on the carrier; and
applying a change in an external environment wherein
an ionization rate of the polymer material changes in response to the change in the external environment, and
the change in the external environment is a change in temperature, salt concentration, permittivity or pH of a solution in contact with the adsorbent material.
9. The purification method according to claim 8 , wherein a column is packed with the adsorbent material.
10. The purification method according to claim 8 , wherein the adsorbent material is used in a state of a suspension.
