Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention provides a high purity heparin useful to be a pharmaceutical product, cosmetics, research reagent, or the like, and a method for producing the same, more specifically, a heparin which does not substantially contain a nitrous acid degradation-resistant impurity and a method for producing a heparin, comprising mixing an aqueous solution of 5 to 30% by weight of the heparin with ethanol having an amount (volume) 0.2 to 1 times the amount (volume) of the aqueous heparin solution to obtain a colloidal precipitate of heparin.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A heparin obtainable by a method comprising mixing an aqueous solution of 5 to 30% by weight of a heparin with an organic solvent having an amount (volume) 0.2 to 1 times the amount (volume) of the aqueous heparin solution to obtain a colloidal precipitate of heparin, wherein the organic solvent is selected from ethanol, methanol, and a mixed solvent thereof, wherein a sodium chloride or sodium acetate salt is dissolved in a concentration of 50 to 500 mM in the aqueous heparin solution. 2. The heparin according to claim 1 , wherein the heparin has a molecular weight in a range of 3000 to 30000 dalton. 3. A method for producing a heparin, which comprises mixing an aqueous solution of 5 to 30% by weight of a heparin with an organic solvent having an amount (volume) 0.2 to 1 times the amount (volume) of the aqueous heparin solution to obtain a colloidal precipitate of heparin, wherein the organic solvent is selected from ethanol, methanol, and a mixed solvent thereof, wherein a sodium chloride or sodium acetate salt is dissolved in a concentration of 50 to 500 mM in the aqueous heparin solution. 4. A heparin obtainable by a method comprising mixing an aqueous solution of 5 to 30% by weight of a heparin with an organic solvent having an amount (volume) 0.2 to 1 times the amount (volume) of the aqueous heparin solution to obtain a supernatant fluid containing heparin, wherein the organic solvent is selected from ethanol, methanol, and a mixed solvent thereof, wherein a sodium chloride or sodium acetate salt is dissolved in a concentration of 50 to 5 mM in the aqueous heparin solution. 5. The heparin according to claim 4 , wherein the heparin has a molecular weight in a range of 1500 to 12000 dalton. 6. A method for producing a heparin, which comprises mixing an aqueous solution of 5 to 30% by weight of a heparin with an organic solvent having an amount (volume) 0.2 to 1 times the amount (volume) of the aqueous heparin solution to obtain a supernatant fluid containing heparin, wherein the organic solvent is selected from ethanol, methanol, and a mixed solvent thereof, wherein a sodium chloride or sodium acetate salt is dissolved in a concentration of 50 to 500 mM in the aqueous heparin solution. 7. The method according to claim 3 , wherein the heparin has a molecular weight in a range of 3000 to 30000 dalton. 8. The method according to claim 6 , wherein the heparin has a molecular weight in a range of 1500 to 12000 dalton.
