PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a device for purifying and concentrating a compound, where the high refining/separation capacity of the compound is maintained, pressure applied in venting or liquid passage is relatively low, and clogging will not occur easily, even in a sample having a number of suspended matters, and to provide a purifying and concentrating method that uses the device. SOLUTION: The compound purifying-concentrating device has a packing material for purifying and concentrating a compound and a fluid permeating plate for holding the packing material at each end surface of the packing material, in a container having an inflow port and an outflow port for a fluid, and has a space portion at an outer surface of the fluid-permeating plate at each end surface. The compound purifying-concentrating method uses the device. The device is designed, such that when the fluid is a gas and is made to flow at a flow rate of 6 to 12 L/min, a linear velocity of the gas which passes through a side face of an imaginary column formed by a plane, which is vertically dropped from a peripheral line of the inflow port or the outflow port of the fluid to the surface of the fluid permeating plate is to be 30 m/sec or lower.
