Chapter <86> Updated: Sustainable Endotoxin Testing - a rapidmicrobiology Special Focus
USP Chapter <86> explains how to test for bacterial endotoxin using non-animal reagents. The new chapter includes methods for using both recombinant cascade (rCR) and recombinant Factor C (rFC) reagents, as well as guidance for manufacturers of new and existing pharmaceutical products on how to incorporate them into their quality testing.
In this special focus, we feature non-animal-derived reagent solutions such as ENDONEXT™ technology from Biomerieux.
Plus, endotoxin specialists at Charles River Microbial Solutions, Fujifilm Irvine Scientific, and Lonza share their expert insights on the advantages of recombinant reagents and how to validate and implement them into a routine testing regimen.
