Endotoxin Detection Reagents

PYROSTAR™ ES-F series (LAL Gel-clot and Turbidimetric Reagent)

Endotoxin-specific LAL reagents (not activated by (1→3)-β-D-glucan), compatible with the BET (USP) compliance tests U.S Food and Drug Administration (FDA) licensed. Intended Use: Limulus amebocyte lysate (LAL) is intended for the detection of gram-negative bacterial endotoxins. PYROSTAR™ ES-F is intended for the qualitative detection of endotoxins by gel-clot or quantitative detection by kinetic turbidimetric methods.

  • Endotoxin-specific lysate, avoids false positive results from glucans
  • Available in multi-tests vials or single-test vials
  • Can be used as either a gel-clot or Kinetic-Turbidimetric Assay (KTA) reagent
  • KTA can be performed in tube reader
  • Gel-Clot lysate sensitivities range from 0.015 to 0.25 EU/mL
  • Available with matched control standard endotoxin (CSE)
  • PYROSTAR™ ES-F reagents (Gel-clot sensitivity 0.015 EU/mL) are available with a KTA quantitative range of either 0.001 EU/mL to 10 EU/mL.
    The KTA quantitative range is related to the Gel-Clot sensitivity.
  • Multi test is performed by mixing 0.1 mL of lysate reagent with 0.1 mL of sample, whereas in single test, a 0.2 mL sample directly dissolves lysate reagent.
Single test: The lysate reagent for one measurement is dispensed in advance in a test tube.
Multi test: The lysate reagent which dissolve in the endotoxin test water, dispense the necessary amount in reaction tubes.

*Multi test is performed by mixing 0.1 mL of lysate reagent with 0.1 mL of sample, whereas in single test, a 0.2 mL sample directly dissolves lysate reagent. Therefore, there will be a difference in sample concentration in the reaction solution. In general, single test tend to be more affected by samples.
