Limulus Color Ky Test

The Limulus Color KY Series are quantitative kinetic chromogenic assays (KCA) that are endotoxin-specific and unreactive to (1→3)-β-D-glucan. This series includes both a multi-test kit and a single-test kit, which utilise a synthetic substrate that produces a yellow color to detect endotoxin with high sensitivity.

• Reagent reacts with endotoxin over a wide range of its concentrations
• Reduces the chance of interfering factors due to high sensitivity
• Can be used with Toxinometer® or microplate reader
• KCA quantitative range detection limit of 0,0005 to 5 EU/mL
• The sample size is 0,1 mlwhen used with tube reader; 0,05 mlsample size when used with microplate reader
• Measurement system: Toxinometer or MPR

All reagent kits are matched with a Control Standard Endotoxin (CSE). These reagents work well with samples that are very turbid or show difficulty in quantification by the kinetic turbidimetric assay (KTA).

This multi-test vial is designed to be used with the Toxinometer® or a microplate reader.

To use this configuration with a microplate reader, dispense 0,05 ml of the sample into a microplate containing 0,05 ml of dissolved LAL reagent. When utilising the Toxinometer®, the user dispenses 0,1 mlof dissolved LAL reagent into the appropriate reaction tube followed by 0,1 ml of the sample. The multi-test vial is ideal for a user with a larger number of samples or products that are turbid.
