Can I get a Material Data Safety Sheet (MSDS) for my Lonza endotoxin detection Bacterial Endotoxin Testing (BET) kit, LAL or PyroGene™ Recombinant Factor C (rFC), and/or my accessory products?

All of our endotoxin detection products have been evaluated and deemed non-hazardous in accordance with 29 CFR 1910.1200, the Hazard Communication Standard, based on the percentage quantities of its constituents. Therefore, none of our endotoxin...

When running a Lonza Bacterial Endotoxin Test (BET), LAL or PyroGene™ Recombinant Factor C (rFC), endotoxin detection assay why should I use glass accesory products instead of plastic?

Endotoxin adheres to plastic surfaces more strongly than to glass surfaces. Therefore, we recommend that you use only borosilicate glass dilution tubes when preparing your Control Standard Endotoxin (CSE) dilutions. In some cases, certain plastics...

When running a Lonza Bacterial Endotoxin Test (BET), LAL or PyroGene™ Recombinant Factor C (rFC), endotoxin detection kit why is it important to vortex my control standard endotoxin (CSE) dilutions?

Endotoxin will adhere to glass surfaces, but this can be counteracted with proper vortexing to ensure that the solution you aliquot into your reaction tubes or microplate has the proper EU/ml concentration. As our package inserts state, the CSE vial...

Is the classical Lucetta® Luminometer compatible with MycoAlert® PLUS Assay?

Yes. You can use the MycoAlert® mode of the classical Lucetta® Luminometer AAL-1001 for running MycoAlert® PLUS Assay. However, as the MycoAlert® mode was programmed based on standard MycoAlert® Assay and has not be adapted...

When performing a Lonza Bacterial Endotoxin Test (BET), LAL or PyroGene™ Recombinant Factor C (rFC), endotoxin detection assay how do I convert from EU/ml (Endotoxin Unit) to ng/ml?

Depending on the source of the endotoxin, the conversion from endotoxin units to nanograms will vary. The FDA initially defined the Endotoxin Unit (EU) as the endotoxin activity of 0.2 ng of Reference Endotoxin Standard, EC-2 or 5 EU/ng. To convert...

How are Lonza's CD34+ cells isolated?

Lonza's CD34+ cells are isolated first by obtaining mononuclear cells from bone marrow or cord blood via density gradient centrifugation. The CD34+ cells are then isolated form the mononuclear cell population using positive immunomagnetic selection.

What is the purity of Lonza's CD34+ cells?

Cell purity (as determined via FACS analysis for CD34 expression) is guaranteed to be 90% or greater for all Lonza CD34+ cell products. For some Lonza CD34+ cell products, a "budget" version of the product is available. The "budget" versions of the...

What is the distance between the two combs on Lonza's Reliant™ Gel, catalog number 57236?

From the bottom of one well to the top of the next, the distance is 31mm.

Where are Lonza's normal Adipose Derived Stem Cells isolated from?

Lonza's normal (non-diabetic) Adipose Derived Stem Cells (ADSCs) are isolated from lipoaspirate obtained from liposuction surgeries. As liposuction surgeries typically pool lipoaspirate from multiple locations, a single isolation source is not able...

Can plasma or serum be run on Lonza's FlashGel™ System without prior purification?

No. The DNA or RNA will need to be extracted and purified before the samples can be loaded and run on the FlashGel™ Cassettes.
