EndoLISA® ELISA-based Endotoxin Detection Assay



EndoLISA® is intended for in vitro quantitative determination of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in pharmaceutical, biological and environmental samples.

Revolutionizing endotoxin testing with built-in sample preparation, EndoLISA® is the result of several years of research and test development aimed at establishing a better performing alternative to LAL. In the recently published book “Pharmaceutical Microbiology” (Wiley-VCH), Dr. Michael Rieth describes EndoLISA® as a milestone in endotoxin detection.

EndoLISA® is based on a lipopolysaccharide (LPS) specific phage recombinant protein, which specifically binds to the entire substance group of LPS (endotoxin). The phage protein is pre-coated to the wells in the EndoLISA® microtiter plate and as the sample is added to the well, the endotoxin (LPS) in the sample is bound to the phage protein. Any sample matrix with potentially interfering components is then completely removed by a washing step. Therefore, the subsequent detection by recombinant Factor C (rFC) and a fluorescence substrate is left unaffected by inhibitors, facilitating a reliable quantification of endotoxin in the sample.

-Robust assay with excellent reproducibility
-Measurement range: 0.05 – 500 EU/ml
-pH range: 4 – 9
-Flexible testing format: microtiter plate
-Saves the diminishing horseshoe crab population
-For laboratory and research use only
