Limulus Amebocyte Lysate (LAL)

Gel Clot Assay

Chesapeake Limulabs' gel clot assay is a qualitative LAL test that detects a positive or negative presence of endotoxin from Gram-negative bacteria at varying sensitivity levels.  

▸   Easy-to-use: simply aliquot your sample & LAL reagent into test tubes, incubate for 1 hour, & rotate tube to determine whether sample has coagulated

▸   Multiple sensitivity levels: 0.015 EU/mL, 0.03 EU/mL, 0.06 EU/mL, 0.125 EU/mL, & 0.25 EU/mL

▸   Choose from 5.2 mL (~50 tests) or 2 mL (~20 tests) vials 

▸   Only need LPS-free test tubes & a 37 °C water bath

▸   Control Standard Endotoxin (CSE) and LAL reagent water available

▸   Customizable kits

Handling,storage, & disclaimer: Store at -20-+8 °C before reconstituting. Reconstitute with LPS-free water. Store at 2-8 °C (for up to 30 days) or freeze at -20 °C (only freeze & thaw once) for reconstituted reagents. Open vials only under aseptic conditions, and use only certified LPS-free equipment and disposables. Aliquot samples and reagents into tubes under aseptic conditions. Close lids on tubes before exiting aseptic conditions and placing into water bath. Additional instructions provided in the kit. All reagents are for research purposes only unless otherwise specified. For research purposes only. 

Kinetic Turbidimetric Assay

Chesapeake Limulabs' kinetic turbidimetric assay is a quantitative LAL test that measures the concentration of endotoxin in a sample. 

▸   Simply aliquot your sample & LAL reagent into a 96-well plate, allow the plate reader to monitor the change in turbidity over time at 340 nm, & compare to a standard curve

Quan

▸   Quantitative range: 0.01-10 EU/mL

▸   Choose from 5.2 mL (~50 tests) or 2 mL (~20 tests) vials ​

▸   Control Standard Endotoxin (CSE) and LAL reagent water available

▸   Customizable kits
