Lipoproteins, Low Density, Human Plasma, Suitable for Cell Culture (C007B-551303)

Endotoxin Level: <=10 EU/mg by Pyrosate LAL clot test Sterility Testing: Using Turbidity Growth/No Growth as the IndicatorThioglycollate Broth (THIO) for yeast and mold growthTryptic Soy Broth (TSB) for bacterial growth In a normal fasting individual, low density lipoprotein concentrations range from 2.0 - 3.5 g/L. LDL constitutes 50% of the total lipoprotein mass in plasma and is the major carrier of cholesterol and cholesteryl esters. LDL levels strongly correlate with coronary heart disease. Purity: single arc by IEP against antisera to whole human serum. Essentially free of other plasma lipoproteins and chylomicrons as determined by electrophoresis using a SPIFE Vis Cholesterol gel kit for lipids and Coomassie Blue for proteins. >=95% of total lipoprotein content by electrophoresis.Prepared from fresh, non-frozen plasma shown to be non reactive for HBsAg, anti-HCV, anti-HBc, and negative for anti-HIV 1 & 2 by FDA-required tests.
