Product Specification

SOURCE/HOST:	Smooth (S)-form LPS isolated and purified from Salmonella minnesota (wild type) by a modification of the PCP extraction method [1,2], converted to the uniform sodium salt form [3] and dissolved in sterile pyrogen-free double distilled water.
CONCENTRATION:	1mg/ml
PURITY:	Absence of detectable protein or DNA contaminants with agonistic TLR activity.
FORMULATION:	Liquid. Sterile, ready-to-use solution in pyrogen-free double distilled water.
ACTIVITY:	Specific activator of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4). Does not activate TLR2 or other TLRs as determined with splenocytes and macrophages from TLR4 deficient mice. 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.
SHIPPING:	AMBIENT
LONG TERM STORAGE:	+4°C
USE/STABILITY:	Stable for at least 1 year after receipt when stored at +4°C.
HANDLING:	Use must be restricted to qualified personnel. Do not ingest. Wear gloves and mask when handling this product! Avoid contact through all modes of exposure. LPS compounds are highly pyrogenic. Avoid accidental injection; extreme care should be taken when handling in conjunction with hypodermic syringes. Avoid inhalation of LPS and prevent these compounds from entering the bloodstream. Keep sterile.
HAZARD:	HARMFUL. HIGHLY PYROGENIC.
