The present invention provides a novel branched-chain sialose molecule represented by the following formula (I), which is capable of preventing type A from all humans and animals as a host-wide variation or antigenic variation against influenza virus Substances used for adsorbents such as pharmaceuticals infected with influenza virus and influenza B virus, and filters for virus removal. (In the formula, NeuAc represents N-acetylneuraminic acid in which the hydroxyl group, carboxyl group and amide group of the NeuAc may be chemically modified by halogen, alkyl group or acyl group in the same or different ways, Hex represents hexose, HexNAc represents acetylhexosamine , R is a matrix selected from hydrogen atoms, hydrocarbon chains, sugar chains, lipids, proteins, and synthetic polymers, and R may also have substituents. In addition, the combination of N-acetylneuraminic acid and hexose may be naturally occurring The ortho-glycosidic bond may be a chemically transformed bond such as S-glycosidic or Se-glycosidic bond.)
