General description

This product is TCA extracted from E. coli serotype O111:B4. The source strain is from a private collection. This LPS serotype has been used to stimulate B-cells and induce NOS in human hepatocytes.

Application

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, which recognizes common pathogen-associated molecular-patterns (PAMPs).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) are localized in the outer layer of the membrane and are, in noncapsulated strains, exposed on the cell surface. They contribute to the integrity of the outer membrane, and protect the cell against the action of bile salts and lipophilic antibiotics.

Preparation Note

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 oC. 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.

Questions

  1. Hi, The LPS (L4130) product data sheet does not include at what temperature it should be stored after dissolving with water or PBS. Can you help me with this issue, please?

    1. Please see the following link describing our LPS products: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/technical-documents/protocol/clinical-testing-and-diagnostics-manufacturing/bacteriology/lipopolysaccharides

      Solutions at 1 mg/mL in buffer or culture medium are stable for approximately one month at 2-8 °C. For long term storage, frozen aliquots are stable up to 2 years. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles. Solutions should be stored in silanized containers as LPS can bind to plastics and certain types of glass, particularly at concentrations of <0.1 mg/mL. If the LPS concentration is >1 mg/mL, adsorption to the sides of the vial is negligible. If glass containers are used, solutions should be vortexed for at least 30 minutes to redissolve any adsorbed product.
