Abstract
A granular polymer composite comprising polymeric granules having coated on a surface thereof a calcium phosphate compound, at least a part of the particles of the calcium phosphate compound penetrates into the polymeric granules. The composite has a high bonding strength between the polymeric granules as a matrix and a coating of the calcium phosphate compound and also can fully exhibit the functions of a calcium phosphate compound. Using the granular polymer composite, a diagnostic agent which comprises of an antigen or antibody is adsorbed and immobilized on the composite and is therefore useful in diagnostic tests utilizing an antigen-antibody reaction for a number of infectious diseases.
