LPS Extraction Kit

LPS Extraction Kit is a product that can separate/purify LPS existing on the outer cell wall of Gram-negative bacteria. In general, Gram-negative bacteria have a separate structure called lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in addition to phospholipid and protein in the external layer of the cell envelope, and this has different characteristics for each bacteria. Such LPS is known to play an important role in bacterial growth and survival, and especially in the interaction between host and parasite. In addition, LPS is understood to be closely related to the immune response, such as causing peripheral vascular collapse by secreting endotoxin when septic shock is applied, and is also important for toxic pathophysiological responses. The extraction pattern of LPS is different for each bacteria, and through this, the bacteria are systematically separated.
