Product Details
Activity |
Strong activator of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4). Does not activate TLR2 or other TLRs as determined with splenocytes and macrophages from TLR4 deficient mice. No further re-extraction required.Smooth (S)-form LPS are commonly the preferred choice for whole animal studies, whereas Rough (R)-form LPS are primarily used in cellular in vitro activation studies. |
---|---|
Alternative Name |
Lipopolysaccharide from E. coli, Serotype J5 (Rc) |
Couple Target |
TLR, TLR4 |
Couple Type |
Activator, Ligand |
Formulation |
Liquid. Sterile, ready-to-use solution in pyrogen-free double distilled water. |
Purity |
Absence of detectable protein or DNA contaminants with agonistic TLR activity. |
Source |
Rough (R)-form LPS isolated and purified from E. coli J5 (Rc mutant) by a modification of the PCP extraction method, converted to the uniform sodium salt form and dissolved in sterile pyrogen-free double distilled water. |
Handling & Storage
