BIOCOMPATIBLE POLYMER AND FILTER FOR SELECTIVELY ELIMINATING LEUCOCYTES USING THE SAME

摘要

A polymer having an extremely low elution property, excelling in biocompatibility, and useful for selective leukocyte removal filter is provided. A filter material for selective removal of leukocytes, a filter apparatus for selective removal of leukocytes, and a system for selective removal of leukocytes using the above polymer are also provided. The above polymer comprises 8-45 mol% of a unit originating from a polymerizable monomer having a polyalkylene oxide chain, 30-90 mol% of a unit originating from a polymerizable monomer having a hydrophobic group, and 2-50 mol% of a unit originating from a polymerizable monomer having a hydroxyl group.
