Bacterial Endotoxin Testing

Bacterial endotoxin testing is a critical safety requirement for pharmaceutical and biomedical products. Bacterial endotoxins, such as gram-negative bacteria, can cause fever and septic shock, if they enter a patient’s bloodstream. Thus, any products that enter the human body must be tested for the presence of endotoxins prior to market release. MycoScience uses limulus amebocyte lysate (LAL) for bacterial endotoxin testing. LAL is the most sensitive and specific method available for the detection of endotoxins.
