Used primarily in the detection of bacterial endotoxins, it is a critical component in the Limulus Amebocyte Lysate (LAL) test. This reagent is widely applied in the pharmaceutical and medical device industries to ensure products are free from harmful endotoxins. It is also utilized in quality control processes for injectable drugs, vaccines, and implantable medical devices, ensuring they meet safety standards. Additionally, it plays a role in research settings for studying endotoxin-related immune responses. Its high sensitivity and specificity make it a reliable tool for endotoxin detection in various applications.
