Summary

The binding of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) to various matrix bound long-chain hydrocarbon structures has been studied. It was found that HBsAg was strongly bound to straight hydrocarbon chains with more than seven carbon atoms. The adsorbents can probably be used for removal and /or detection of hepatitis B infectious material.
