Abstract

A method for producing a chromatography carrier, including providing a solid phase support, where the solid phase support provided is formed of porous particles on which a ligand has or has not been immobilized, and subjecting the solid phase support to sieve classification. A coefficient of variation of a volume particle size distribution of the porous particles when a ligand has been immobilized is adjusted to 1% to 22%, and a ratio (d1/d50) of volume cumulative 1% particle size d 1 to volume cumulative 50% particle size d50 in terms of the porous particles is adjusted to 0.55 to 1.0.

Claims (25)

1 . A method for producing a chromatography carrier, comprising:

providing a solid phase support, wherein the solid phase support provided is formed of porous particles on which a ligand has or has not been immobilized; and

subjecting the solid phase support to sieve classification, wherein a coefficient of variation of a volume particle size distribution of the porous particles when a ligand has been immobilized is adjusted to 1% to 22%, and a ratio (d1 /d50) of volume cumulative 1% particle size d1 to volume cumulative 50% particle size d50 in terms of the porous particles is adjusted to 0.55 to 1.0.

2 . A method for producing a chromatography carrier, comprising:

providing a solid phase support, wherein the solid phase support provided is formed of porous particles on which a ligand has been immobilized; and

subjecting the solid phase support to sieve classification, wherein a coefficient of variation of a volume particle size distribution of the porous particles when a ligand has been immobilized is adjusted to 1% to 22%, and a ratio (d1 /d50) of volume cumulative 1% particle size d1 to volume cumulative 50% particle size d50 in terms of the porous particles is adjusted to 0.55 to 1.0.

3 . A method for producing a chromatography carrier, comprising:

providing a solid phase support, wherein the solid phase support provided is formed of porous particles on which a ligand has not been immobilized; and

subjecting the solid phase support to sieve classification, wherein a coefficient of variation of a volume particle size distribution of the porous particles when a ligand has been immobilized is adjusted to 1% to 22%, and a ratio (d1 /d50) of volume cumulative 1% particle size d1 to volume cumulative 50% particle size d50 in terms of the porous particles is adjusted to 0.55 to 1.0.

4 . The method of claim 3 , further comprising immobilizing a ligand onto the porous particles which have undergone the sieve classification.

5 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

performing the sieve classification by means of a first sieve having a mesh opening of 10% or greater and smaller than 200%, with respect to a mean volume diameter of the solid phase support before sieve classification as 100%, to thereby recover a residue over the first sieve; and

performing a sieve classification of the residue by means of a second sieve having a mesh opening greater than that of the first sieve and smaller than 600% of the particle size, to thereby recover a matter having passed through the second sieve,

wherein the performing sieve classification of the residue is before or after the performing the sieve classification by means of a first sieve.

6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the sieve classification is a wet process.

7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the coefficient of variation is 5% to 20%, and the ratio (d1/d50) is 0.60 to 0.95.

8 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising dispersing a monomer composition in an aqueous medium and conducting suspension polymerization during the providing.

9 . A method for producing a chromatography column, comprising:

charging a carrier into a column vessel,

wherein the carrier is formed of porous particles onto which a ligand has been immobilized; and the carrier has a coefficient of variation of a volume particle size distribution of 1% to 22% and a ratio (d1/d50) of volume cumulative 1% particle size d1 to volume cumulative 50% particle size d50 of 0.55 to 1.0.

10 . A chromatography carrier

wherein the chromatography carrier is dispersed in a dispersion medium, and

wherein the chromatography carrier is formed of porous particles onto which a ligand has been immobilized; and the chromatography carrier has a coefficient of variation of a volume particle size distribution of 1% to 22% and a ratio (d1/d50) of volume cumulative 1% particle size d1 to volume cumulative 50% particle size d50 of 0.55 to 1.0.

11 . The chromatography carrier according to claim 10 , wherein the chromatography carrier has a volume cumulative 50% particle size d50 of 55 μm to 100 μm.

12 . The chromatography carrier according to claim 10 , wherein the chromatography carrier has a volume cumulative 1% particle size d1 of 30 μm to 75 μm.
