Beta-glucans Blocker for Blocking
Bate Glucan Pathway
1. Product information
There
are two pathway in limulus amoebocyte lysate lal reagent, factor C pathway is
specific to endotoxin and factor G pathway is specific to
(1,3)- β-D-Glucans. If the test sample contains β-1,3-Glucans,
the limulus test will have interferences. β-G-Blocker blocks the reactivity of
LAL to β-1,3-Glucans,conferring increased
endotoxin specificity to the LAL test. If the test samples contains
β-1,3-Glucan, such as cellulose, using beta-glucans
blocker would be a good idea to block the β-1,3-Glucan interference to
endotoxin and LAL reagent reaction.
2. Product parameter
Endotoxin
level < 0.005EU/ml
3. Product features and application
Substitute
LAL Reagent Water to reconstitute LAL reagent, blocks the beta-glucan mediates
factor G pathway and insure the LAL reagent only reacts to endotoxin. For the
test samples that has the (1,3)- β-D-Glucan contamination.
