Application

Sera from rat has been used:
  • in food folate analysis to prepare rat serum conjugase to deconjugate folates in extract samples
  • in the preparation of deconjugase for enzyme digestion
  • in ex vivo experiments to analyze rat serum spiked with intravenous iron preparations

Biochem/physiol Actions

Rat serum supports the reaggregation of rat islet cells into tridimensional pseudo islets useful for transplantation studies. It functions as an inhibitor of the non-specific binding of rat antibodies in immunochemical techniques.

Lipopolysaccharide (LPS/endotoxin) is a potent immunologic stimulant. Many commercial-grade reagents used in research are not screened for LPS contamination. LPS induces a wide spectrum of proinflammatory responses in microglia, the immune cells of the brain. Recent studies have demonstrated that
