Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a new method for separating target substances using affinity particles made of inorganic particles. These particles have the advantage of easily and accurately separating the target substance with high efficiency. The inorganic particles used in this method can be selected from a variety of materials such as silica, titanium oxide, and iron oxide, and can be easily dispersed in a liquid sample containing the target substance. The method can be used in various separation, purification, and testing methods such as latex agglutination and immunoprecipitation. The inorganic particles used in this method have the ability to selectively capture the target substance and can be easily detected and recovered. Overall, the present invention provides a new and improved method for separating target substances using affinity particles.

Problems solved by technology

However, column separation has some fatal problems as described in the following (1) to (3): (1) Many kinds of columns have to be used to obtain the target substance, resulting in a poor purification efficiency.
(2) A verification test is required to make sure the target substance is contained in the fractionated ingredients, which means purification is time consuming.
(3) Because of the large purification loss, a large quantity of the sample is required.
However, separation and purification using affinity columns have the following problems: (1) The desired target substance is not selectively separated.
(2) The capture efficiency is low, which means a large quantity of the liquid sample is required.
The affinity separation method in which affinity particles are dispersed in a liquid sample for separation uses agarose and such (Non-patent Document 1), but this method has the following problems: (1) The desired target substance is not selectively separated.
(2) The specific gravity is small, which makes the separation of the affinity particles difficult.
(3) The carrier is easily disintegrated, which leads to poor durability.
On the other hand, inorganic particles adsorb more substances than organic particles do, therefore those skilled in the art didn't think of using inorganic particles for affinity particles.

synthesis example 1

“An aldehyde Chemical Compound Containing Phosphorylcholine Groups”

[0135] 1-alpha-glycerophosphorylcholine (6.29 g) was dissolved in 210 ml of distilled water and cooled in an ice water bath. Sodium periodate (10.23 g) was added, followed by five hours of stirring. The reaction fluid was concentrated under reduced pressure and dried under reduced pressure; methanol was then used to extract the target substance. The structure is shown in the following chemical formula (6).

[0136] A 1H NMR spectrum of the compound of formula (6) is shown in FIG. 2. Since the compound of formula (6) is in equilibrium with formula (9) in water, the actual spectrum reflects both formula (6) and formula (9).

synthesis example 2

“A Carboxylic Acid Chemical Compound Containing Phosphorylcholine Groups”

[0137] 5 g of glycerophosphorylcholine, 17 g of sodium periodate, 81 mg of ruthenium trichloride n-hydrate, 70 g of ion-exchanged water and 30 g of acetonitrile were put into a 200 ml flask. After stirring for two hours at room temperature, filtering was carried out and the solvent was removed from the filtrate. Methanol was used to extract the target compound from the obtained solid product; methanol was then removed to obtain the target compound (7).

[0138] A 1H NMR spectrum of the compound of formula (7) is shown in FIG. 3.

synthesis example 3

“Compound of Formula (10)”

[0139] 9.0 g of the compound of Synthesis example 1 was dissolved in 55 mL of dehydrated methanol, and the air inside the vessel was replaced by dry nitrogen. Next, 2.84 g of 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane was added to the methanol solution of chemical compound 1. This mixed solution was stirred overnight at room temperature and cooled with ice; 1.39 g of sodium cyanohydroborate was then added and the temperature was returned back to room temperature, followed by 5 hours of stirring. During this time dry nitrogen was continued to be fed through the reaction vessel. After filtering the precipitation, a methanol solution of the target substance, i.e. the compound of the following formula (10), was obtained.
