Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 50 words
A process for producing a bond between polyvinylene glycol and a substance containing primary amino groups, which comprises treating said polyvinylene glycol with a medium to strong oxidant until a sufficient number of aldehyde groups is formed and then reacting the oxidation product with the substance containing primary amino groups.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 50 words
A process for producing a bond between polyvinylene glycol and a substance containing primary amino groups, which comprises treating said polyvinylene glycol with a medium to strong oxidant until a sufficient number of aldehyde groups is formed and then reacting the oxidation product with the substance containing primary amino groups.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 28 words
The process of claim 1, wherein the substance containing primary amino groups is a biologically active substance or a substance capable of reacting with a biologically active substance.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 42 words
The process of claim 2, wherein the biologically active substance is an enzyme, an activator, an inhibitor, an antigen or antibody, a plasma protein, a blood group specific substance, a polypeptide, a peptide, an amino acid, or a natural or synthetic effector.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 49 words
The process of claim 1, wherein the oxidation product is first reacted with a bifunctional compound containing a primary amino group and the second functional group of the latter compound is then reacted with a biologically active substance or a substance capable of reacting with a biologically active substance.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 16 words
The process of claim 1, wherein the polymer is polyvinylene glycol cross-linked with a bifuntional compound.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 20 words
