| 1. A method for removing a nucleic acid contained in cell extract, comprising:
mixing a nucleic acid adsorbent with a first solution containing the nucleic acid, the nucleic acid adsorbent comprising a
polymer immobilized on a water-insoluble carrier; and
separating from the cell extract, the nucleic acid adsorbent that has adsorbed the nucleic acid,
wherein the constitutional unit of the polymer is represented by the following formula (I):
![]() wherein R1 represents hydrogen, fluoride, or methyl; R2 and R3 each independently represent alkyl of 1 to 6 carbon atoms; A represents —NH— or —O—; and B represents alkylene of 2 to 18
carbon atoms.
