Abstract

Abstract A method for removing antigenicity from peptide derived from a collagen-containing material or gelatin by hydrolyzing it with aid of an inorganic acid is disclosed. The method is carried out by passing the peptide through a mixture of a cation-exchange resin and an anion-exchange resin. The thus treated peptide may be further passed through a membrane for ultrafiltration to remove pyrogenous substances completely. The peptide obtained is useful as an additive, diluent or carrier for cosmetic articles or drugs.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 40 words
A method for removing antigenicity from peptide derived from collagen-containing materials or gelatin by hydrolyzing the material or gelatin with aid of an inorganic acid, which comprises passing the peptide through a mixture of a cation-exchange resin and anion-exchange resin.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 40 words
A method for removing antigenicity from peptide derived from collagen-containing materials or gelatin by hydrolyzing the material or gelatin with aid of an inorganic acid, which comprises passing the peptide through a mixture of a cation-exchange resin and anion-exchange resin.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 28 words
A method according to claim 1 wherein said cation-exchange resin is a sulfonic type of ion-exchange resin and said anion-exchange resin is an ammonium type of ion-exchange resin.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 27 words
A method according to claim 1 wherein said hydrolysis is carried out under such conditions that the molecular weight of the peptide is between 600 and 50,000.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 35 words
A method according to claim 3 wherein said hydrolysis is carried out in water containing hydrochloric acid at a concentration of from 0.3 to 2.0% at 70° to 80° C. for 3 to 5 hours.
Claim 6
Independent Claim 30 words
A method according to any one of claims 1 to 4 wherein the peptide passed through the mixture of ion-exchange resins is further subjected to ultrafiltration to remove pyrogenous substances.
