FILTRATIONSMITTEL ZUM ENTFERNEN VON LEUKOCYTEN

摘要

A leukocyte-removing filter material which consists of a porous element having fine pores of an average pore diameter of not less than 1.0 mu m but less than 100 mu m and a fiber structure composed of a plurality of fibers having an average fiber diameter of not less than 0.01 mu m but less than 1.0 mu m kept on the above porous element, wherein the porosity of the above filter material is not less than 50% but less than 95%, the proportion of the above fiber structure to the above filter material is not less than 0.01% by weight but less than 30% by weight, the ratio between the average pore diameter of the above porous element and the average fiber diameter of the above fiber structure is not less than 2 but less than 2,000 and the above fiber structure forms a reticulate structure; a process for producing the same; and an apparatus for removing leukocyte using the above filter material.
