  • Patent number: 5621072
    Abstract: A purified guaiacum resin which is obtained by isolation from a natural guaiacum resin with chromatography using a gel for reversed chromatography as a stationary phase and a polar solvent as a mobile phase. The purified guaiacum resin does not contain substances causing the repellency of a specimen or constituents exhibiting unstable color development when it is used as a body fluid inspection agent and is subjected to color reaction in the presence of a peroxidase and hydrogen peroxide.
