Claim 1
Independent Claim
91 words
In a method for purifying kallidinogenase by subjecting the aqueous phase of a kallidinogenase-containing aqueous extract obtained from the pancreas of a mammal to an adsorption-elution treatment using an anion exchange resin, the improvement comprising (1) bringing said aqueous phase of the kallidinogenase-containing aqueous extract into contact with a gel-type weakly basic anion-exchange resin to cause the kallidinogenase fraction to be adsorbed to said resin, and (2) eluting the kallidinogenase with an aqueous solution of a salt consisting of an ammonium salt of a weak acid, thereby to collect the kallidinogenase.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
91 words
In a method for purifying kallidinogenase by subjecting the aqueous phase of a kallidinogenase-containing aqueous extract obtained from the pancreas of a mammal to an adsorption-elution treatment using an anion exchange resin, the improvement comprising (1) bringing said aqueous phase of the kallidinogenase-containing aqueous extract into contact with a gel-type weakly basic anion-exchange resin to cause the kallidinogenase fraction to be adsorbed to said resin, and (2) eluting the kallidinogenase with an aqueous solution of a salt consisting of an ammonium salt of a weak acid, thereby to collect the kallidinogenase.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim

Claim 5
Dependent Claim
26 words
The method of claim 1 in which the adsorption step (1) is carried out at a pH of more than about 4 but below about 8.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
24 words
The method of claim 1 in which the adsorption step (1) is carried out at a pH of from about 5 to about 7.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim

The method of claim 1 in which the adsorption step (1) is carried out at a pH of from about 5.5 to about 6.5.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
24 words
The method of claim 1 in which the elution step (2) is carried out at a pH of from about 6 to about 7.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
24 words
The method of claim 6 in which the elution step (2) is carried out at a pH of from about 6 to about 7.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
23 words
The method of claim 1 in which the gel-type weakly basic anion-exchange resin comprises a resin having secondary or tertiary amine exchange groups.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
23 words
The method of claim 8 in which the gel-type weakly basic anion-exchange resin comprises a resin having secondary or tertiary amine exchange groups.
Claim 12
Independent Claim
125 words
A method for extracting and collecting purified kallidinogenase (EC 3.4.4.21 substance) which comprises extracting the pancreas of a mammal with water in the presence of a salt at a temperature of about 45° to about 60° C. and a pH of about 5 to about 8, wherein the extraction is carried out in the presence of a water-soluble salt of magnesium with an acid thereby obtaining an aqueous phase containing kallidinogenase, bringing said aqueous phase of the kallidinogenase-containing aqueous extract into contact with a gel-type weakly basic anion-exchange resin to cause the kallidinogenase fraction to be adsorbed to said resin, and eluting the kallidinogenase with an aqueous solution of a salt consisting of an ammonium salt of a weak acid, thereby to collect the kallidinogenase.
