Endotoxin detection in end-stage kidney disease.
AIMS Endotoxin detection assays are not validated for use in end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). We investigated the accuracy and precision of the kinetic turbidimetric Limulus amoebocyte lysate (LAL) assay to detect endotoxin in plasma from patients with ESKD. Optimisation of endotoxin recovery from plasma using the detergent Tween 80 was also explored. METHODS Plasma samples from 7 patients wi...
متن کاملNovel electrochemical sensor for endotoxin detection
Endotoxin, a component of many bacteria, is highly toxic when injected into humans or animals. Since endotoxin is widespread in the environment, any drug, fluid or device intended to be injected or in close contact with live tissues must be tested to assure that it is LPS-free. Currently, the method most extensively used for endotoxin detection (LAL; Limulus Amebocyte Lysate) is sensitive but l...
متن کاملComparison of ELISA and PCR Assays for Detection of Pork Adulteration in Halal-Labelled Beef Products
Background: Food adulteration with pork in processed beef products is one of the most serious issues in a food sector in a Muslim-majority country since it is related to religious food ethics regarding the halal products. The goal of this research is to test the suitability of ingredients in beef floss and its Halal by knowing the presence of pork DNA and protein in those products. Methods: Me...
متن کاملMiniaturized Aptamer-Based Assays for Protein Detection
The availability of devices for cancer biomarker detection at early stages of the disease is one of the most critical issues in biomedicine. Towards this goal, to increase the assay sensitivity, device miniaturization strategies empowered by the employment of high affinity protein binders constitute a valuable approach. In this work we propose two different surface-based miniaturized platforms ...
متن کاملAssays for Detection of Telomerase Activity
Progressive loss of the telomeric ends of chromosomes caused by the semi-conservative mechanism of DNA replication is an important timing mechanism which controls the number of cells doubling. Telomerase is an enzyme which elongates one chain of the telomeric DNA and compensates for its shortening during replication. Therefore, telomerase activity serves as a proliferation marker. Telomerase ac...
