Abstract
There are provided an adsorbent which can effectively adsorb and remove endogenous cannabinoid in fluid, and a process for removing endogenous cannabinoid in fluid by means of the adsorbent. The adsorbent of endogenous cannabinoid is obtained by fixing a compound having a log P value (P indicating distribution coefficient in octanol-water system) of at least 3.50 on a water-insoluble carrier. Endogenous cannabinoid in fluid can be adsorbed and removed in an effective manner by contacting the adsorbent of endogenous cannabinoid with fluid containing endogenous cannabinoid.
