Application note: Detect endotoxin with the PyroGene Recombinant Factor C Assay

Get increased sensitivity for the detection of endotoxin in a fluorescence assay.

Monitoring samples for contaminants is a critical step during the production process in the pharmaceutical and medical device industries. Endotoxin, found in the cell wall of gram-negative bacteria, is a frequent contaminant that can cause fever, inflammation, headache, nausea, and even death.

In this application note from Molecular Devices, you can discover how to:

• Assure sample safety with an endotoxin assay that uses a single enzymatic step and no animal-derived products
• Attain sensitivity beyond minimal requirements using the SpectraMax® i3x Multi-Mode Microplate Reader
• Save time by automating a read-incubate-read sequence with a workflow in SoftMax® Pro Software
