Kinetic Turbidimetric LAL Endotoxin Assay Kit

EDK-03

The Kinetic Turbidimetric LAL Endotoxin Assay Kit is a commonly used reagent kit for the quantitative detection of bacterial endotoxin (also known as lipopolysaccharide, LPS). It is based on the principle of gel formation through an enzymatic coagulation reaction using Limulus amoebocyte lysate (LAL) reagent, which increases the turbidity (absorbance) of the reaction solution. This kit offers ultra-high sensitivity, high stability, and a wider detection range. The lower detection limit can be as low as 0.01 EU/ml, and the upper limit can be as high as 10 EU/ml, significantly expanding the detection capability for high concentrations. Furthermore, it can detect trace samples, with sample volumes as small as 50 microliters or even less.

Down to 0.01 EU/ml

(1) Wide Detection Range: Successfully extends the upper limit to 10 EU/ml while maintaining a low detection limit of 0.01 EU/ml.
(2) High Sensitivity & Minimal Sample Volume: Requires only 50μl or less of the sample.
(3) Simplified Workflow: Features a one-step mixing procedure followed by kinetic reading, significantly reducing operation time compared to multi-step chromogenic assays.
(4) Versatile Compatibility: Compatible with any microplate reader equipped with a temperature control system and kinetic monitoring capabilities at 340 nm, 405 nm, or 630 nm.

1 vial (>10^6 cell/vial)

Unopened Kit: 4ºC for 2 years. Storing at -20ºC can further extend the shelf life.
