Bacterial Endotoxins. Structure, Biomedical Significance, and Detection with the Limulum Amebocyte Lysate Test
interaction with specific receptors on the cell surface is covered in this volume. Purification and characterization of specific receptors, characterization of receptormediated enzyme activity, regulation of gene expression by receptors, relationship of receptors to the cell surface, and subsequent receptor internalization and processing are among areas that are reported in detail. The editors ...
متن کاملEndotoxins and Their Detection with the Limulus Amebocyte Lysate Test
In contrast to the detailed descriptions of techniques provided by Larsson, a chapter on the measurement and analysis of acetylcholine written by Israel Hanin takes the form of a brief but comprehensive survey of all of the methods for the quantitation of acetylcholine introduced between 1933 and 1981. Each method presented is referenced and briefly critiqued. This is followed by an article by ...
متن کاملBiomedical Applications of Limulus Amebocyte Lysate
This year celebrates the 30th anniversary of the licensing of Limulus amebocyte lysate (LAL) by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as a test for the presence of endotoxin in biologicals, pharmaceutical drugs, and medical devices. LAL is currently recognized by several major pharmacopoeias and is used worldwide. That a suitable alternative for the detection of endotoxin has not supplanted...
متن کاملLimulus amebocyte lysate assay for endotoxins by an adsorption method with polycation-immobilized cellulose beads.
To assay lipopolysaccharides (LPSs) in solutions containing Limulus amebocyte lysate (LAL)-inhibiting or LAL-enhancing compounds, we developed a selective endotoxin (LPS) assay using poly(epsilon-lysine)-immobilized cellulose beads (PL-Cellufine) and LAL. The PL-Cellufine can adsorb LPSs in a solution containing certain compounds (NaCl, proteins and amino acids) at an ionic strength of mu = 0.0...
متن کاملMeasuring of free endotoxin in alum-precipitated vaccine of haemorrhagic septicaemia by limulus amebocyte lysate test
Haemorrhagic septicaemia (HS) vaccine which is prepared in Razi Institute is used in endemic areas ofIran. Aluminum-hydroxide gel was used as adjuvant for preparing this vaccine. Post-vaccinal shock reactionswere the main complaint after use of this vaccine. In a previous study, we could improve the vaccine byalum-precipitation Pasteurella multocida cells and removing the liquid phase. In this ...
