Product Details
Alternative Name: | MPL-A from E. coli, Serotype R515 (Re) |
|
Source: | Isolated from E. coli, Serotype R515 (Re mutant). Prepared by acid hydrolysis from purified E. coli, Serotype R515 (Re) LPS (isolated by a modification of the PCP extraction method), converted to the uniform salt form and dissolved in sterile pyrogen-free double distilled water. |
|
Concentration: | 1mg/ml |
|
Formulation: | Liquid. Sterile, ready-to-use solution in pyrogen-free double distilled water. |
|
Purity: | ≥99.9% (regarding protein or DNA contaminants; KDO not detectable) |
|
Activity: | Activates TLR4 (Toll-like receptor 4). Does not activate TLR2 as determined with splenocytes and macrophages from TLR4 deficient mice. Exhibits reduced endotoxic and pyrogenic activity compared to lipid A and LPS. |
|
Shipping: | Ambient Temperature |
|
Long Term Storage: | +4°C |
|
Handling: | Keep sterile. |
|
Regulatory Status: | RUO - Research Use Only |
