Efficient On‐Column Removal of Endotoxin from Immunoglobulins Such as AK23
Abstract Unattended endotoxin (ETX) contamination in biological samples constitute a major challenge for in vitro and in vivo applications. Besides being potentially life‐threatening, ETX contamination is especially relevant in global transcriptome analyses, where competing ETX stimulation can significantly skew the final gene expression profile.
