New Version of Endotoxin Kit Introduced

An easy-to-use Limulus Amebocyte Lysate (LAL) gel-clot test enables rapid testing in the laboratory and does not require special laboratory supplies. The easy to follow, step-by-step illustrated instructions allow the user to set up assays within minutes.

The rapid endotoxin detection kit, Pyrosate, was introduced by Associates of Cape Cod, Inc. (ACC; Falmouth, MA, USA) and is licensed by the American Food and Drug Administration (FDA; Silver Spring, MD, USA).

The Pyrosate Kit is now available in sensitivities of 0.03 EU/mL, 0.125 EU/mL and 0.25 EU/mL, in both 10 pack and 30 pack formats. With the introduction of this licensed version, in addition to research and water testing, Pyrosate is ideal for dialysis centers, compounding pharmacies, pharmaceutical, and medical device companies.

Dr. A.J. Meuse, president and CEO of ACC, said, "ACC is the pioneer in endotoxin detection and the first company licensed by the FDA to manufacture LAL for use as a quality control test. We are constantly looking at new approaches to improve existing product offerings and introduce innovative new products. We are quite proud to introduce the newly FDA-licensed Pyrosate Kit."
