Provided is a structure designed for adsorption, which is suitable for removing dioxin and dioxin-like substances from leachate and ground water from polluted soils or garbage, washing effluent from garbage incinerators and so on that contain DNA intercalators, particularly, dioxin and dioxin-like substances. The structure designed for adsorption is a structure designed for adsorption having an adsorbing layer containing, as a constituent, a DNA complex containing a DNA-binding protein, DNA including double strand DNA and a carrier, which can selectively remove DNA intercalators with high efficiency from water, gas and so on containing them.
