Monocytes Derived From Human Pluripotent Stem Cells Engineered for Detection of Pyrogens
In summary, we have developed a monocyte‐based reporter system using hESC‐Mono for interrogating the NF‐κB signalling axis, a central pathway governing pyrogenic responses. Our platform enables rapid and dose‐dependent detection of both endotoxins (LPS) and non‐endotoxins (LTA and Zymosan).

ABSTRACT Derelict fishing gear can negatively affect marine ecosystems through mortality in coastal environments. This study explored the impact of derelict and active crab pots on recreational blue crab (Callinectes sapidus) catch rates and landings in a Mid‐Atlantic estuary by deploying experimental pots in four habitat strata within three sections ...

ABSTRACT Companion canines need advances in therapeutic options for solid tumour malignancies. Natural killer (NK) cell infusions offer a promising treatment modality in canines with solid tumours. Autologous natural killer products are limited by dysfunctional immunity and a manufacturing process that delays care whereas allogeneic NK cells offer the ...

Abstract Objective Cataract surgery remains the sole method to resolve blindness secondary to cataract formation. One complication includes fibrin web formation post‐operatively. This study aimed to investigate the presence of endotoxin within materials used during cataract surgery as a possible cause of fibrin web phenomenon. Methods Preservative‐free

A Study on the Application of Recombinant Factor C (rFC) Assay Using Biopharmaceuticals
Gram-negative bacterial endotoxins can cause pathophysiological effects such as high fever when introduced into the bloodstream. Therefore, endotoxin testing is necessary when producing injectable pharmaceuticals.

Comparison of LAL and rFC Assays—Participation in a Proficiency Test Program between 2014 and 2019
Endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide) testing of drugs is routinely required in pharmaceutical industries. Suitable compendial assays are defined by national pharmacopoeias. At this time, Limulus Amoebocyte Lysate (LAL) assays are the gold standard. LAL is used
