An adsorbent for reducing the content of circulating cells and/or platelets in a biological sample, e.g. for reducing the content of activated leukocytes and/or malarial-infected erythrocytes in a biological sample, the adsorbent comprising : (a) a support; and (b) an affinity agent immobilized on the support; wherein the affinity agent has a binding affinity for a molecule expressed on the surface of the circulating cells and/or platelets, e.g. for a molecule expressed on the surface of activated leukocytes and/or malarial-infected erythrocytes. |
