Abstract
A method for preparing a sample for use in endotoxin test which comprises subjecting a sample of plasma or blood preparation to a contact with water-insoluble anti human .alpha..sub.2 -macroglobulin antibody and to a gel filtration by means of a gel of allyl dextran crosslinked with N,N'-methylenebis acrylamide or a gel of polyvinyl alcohol having many hydrophilic hydroxyl groups, and recovering the maximum molecular weight fraction. A kit for preparing a sample for use in the endotoxin test consisting of a set of a sample-developing column prepared by packing a water-insoluble anti-human .alpha..sub.2 -macroglobulin antibody and a gel of allyl dextran crosslinked with N,N'-methylenebis acrylamide or a gel of polyvinyl alcohol having many hydrophilic hydroxyl groups, both equilibrated with a buffer solution of pH 7.0-7.4, into a column and tightly sealing the column, an aqueous solution of a high molecular weight colored substance to be added to the sample and a buffer solution for use in developing the sample.
