The invention relates to a method for preparation of a sample (10) of a formulation (11) for subsequent endotoxin determination, the formulation (11) suspected of comprising an endotoxin, the formulation (11) preferentially being a pharmaceutical formulation. The method comprises the following steps: application of the sample (10) to an endotoxin-free centrifugation column (2) containing a size exclusion chromatography matrix (5) that has been equilibrated with a suitable equilibration buffer (6) and elution of a flow through (15) of the sample by centrifugation, which flow through (15) can then be used for endotoxin determination. The equilibration buffer (6) is selected according to a subsequently used method of endotoxin determination, the equilibration buffer (6) only containing components not interfering with subsequently used method of endotoxin determination. Furthermore, the invention relates to a kit (20) for preparation of a sample (10).

A blood purifier includes a porous molded body; exhibits an excellent blood compatibility wherein platelet adherence is inhibited and exhibits a good cytokine adsorption capacity and a low pressure loss before and after blood treatment; and can be safely used. A blood purifier includes a main vessel and a porous molded body housed in the main vessel. The porous molded body contains a hydrophobic polymer and a hydrophilic polymer. The amount of low-melting-point water per 1 g of dry weight of the porous molded body is 0.12 g to 2.00 g. The contact change ratio for the porous molded body is 0% to 0.2%. The ratio L/D is 1.00 to 2.30 where, for the region taken up by the porous molded body in the main vessel, L is the length in the flow direction and D is the circle-equivalent diameter of the cross section in the direction perpendicular to the flow direction.

Disclosed herein is a method for obtaining compounds and compositions from plant and fungus materials by thermal treatment, affinity capture, filtration, and release through multi-phasic transitions between gas, solid, and liquid states. The compounds of interest are obtained by manipulating the temperature and pressure of the heating chamber. The compounds in gas phase are passed through an affinity medium which captures the compounds of interest in either solid or liquid phase by exposing the compound of interest to the localized micro-affinity environment of the medium. The compounds are separated from the medium using direct competition with solvent or buffers optimized for the specific chemical properties of compounds.
