LPS Ligand – Lipopolysaccharide

For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures. Catalog #: MBS669117

Lipopolysaccharides (LPSs) are characteristic components of the cell wall of Gram-negative bacteria. LPS and its lipid A moiety stimulate cells of the innate immune system by the Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), a member of the Toll-like receptor protein family,… More details

Application Notes for LPS ligand
The product is soluble in water (5 mg/ml) or cell culture medium (1 mg/ml) yielding a hazy, faint yellow solution. A more concentrated, though still hazy, solution (20 mg/ml) has been achieved in aqueous saline after vortexing and warming to 70-80°C. Lipopolysaccharides are molecules that form micelles in every solvent. Hazy solutions are observed in water and phosphate buffered saline. Organic solvents do not give clearer solutions. Methanol yields a turbid suspension with floaters, while water yields a homogeneously hazy solution.

Testing Data of LPS ligand

Fig-1: Induction of human TLR4 activity by LPS. TLR4/IL-8 Leeporter™ Luciferase Reporter-HeLa Cells (MBS669524) were treated with different concentrations of LPS (MBS669117) for 6 h, and then luciferase activity was measured.

Other Notes

Small volumes of LPS ligand vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.
