Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a hepcidin adsorption inhibitor, a method of inhibiting adsorption, a standard product, a reagent, a kit, and a measuring method. The present invention relates to a hepcidin adsorption inhibitor including a chelating agent, a method of inhibiting adsorption of hepcidin, which includes bringing a hepcidin-containing liquid into contact with at least one member selected from a rubber member, a plastic member, or a glass member, in a presence of a chelating agent, a standard product for measuring hepcidin, which contains the hepcidin adsorption inhibitor and hepcidin, and the like. According to the present invention, the adsorption of hepcidin is inhibited.

Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to provide the method for determining cholesterol in lipoprotein and reagent for determining cholesterol comprising the polymer, and the present invention relates to the reagent for determining cholesterol in lipoproteins such as high-density lipoprotein (HDL), low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) and the determination method using the polymer comprising the following units as constituents: (iv) a polyethylene glycol segment represented by the general formula [1]: —(CH2CH2O)k—??[1] (wherein, k represents an integer of 10 to 250); (v) a monomer unit represented by the general formula [2]: (wherein R1 represents a hydrogen atom or C1-C3 alkyl group); and (vi) a monomer unit represented by the general formula [3]: [wherein, R2 represents a hydrogen atom or C1-C3 alkyl group, and R3 represents a group represented by the general formula [4]: —COOR4??[4] (wherein, R4 represents an alkyl group, a haloalkyl group or a bornyl gro
