Summary:PURPOSE: A medical adsorbent comprising activated carbon which is obtained by carbonizing spherical phenol resin and then activating and controlled in the specific surface area, pore volume, mean pore diameter, particle diameter and amount of surface oxide is provided. It can selectively absorb ionic organic compounds such as causative substances of uremia and produces minimal side-effects such as constipation while inhibiting absorption of polymers necessary for the body such as enzymes and polysaccharides as compared to conventional products. CONSTITUTION: The medical adsorbent is prepared by the steps of: obtaining activated carbon by carbonizing a spherical phenol resin in a nitrogen atmosphere at 400 to 1,000 deg.C; activating the carbonized spherical phenol resin at 800 to 1,000deg.C; washing the activated phenol resin with dilute hydrochloric acid; heating the activated phenol resin at 150 to 1,000deg.C in a mixed gas comprising oxygen and nitrogen and then straining the heated phenol resin. The activated carbon has a specific surface area of 500 to 2,000 m¬2/g, a pore volume of 0.2 to 1.0mL/g and a packing density of 0.5 to 0.75g/mL. The spherical phenol resin has a specific surface area of 800 to 2,000 m¬2/g, a pore volume of 1.7 to 2.0mL/g, a maximum particle diameter of 425μm or less and a mean particle diameter of 350μm or less.
