Centrifuge the vial prior to opening. Reconstitute in water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/ml. Do not vortex. This solution can be stored at 2-8°C for up to 1 week. For extended storage, it is recommended to further dilute in a buffer containing a carrier protein (example 0.1% BSA) and store in working aliquots at -20°C to -80°C.

LPS binding protein (LBP) and CD14 play key roles in promoting innate immunity to Gram-negative bacteria by transferring LPS to the signaling receptor complex, MD-2/Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4). LBP and soluble CD14 (sCD14) can also inhibit responses to LPS by
Binding of CD14 to Mycoplasma genitalium-derived lipid-associated membrane proteins upregulates TNF-a.
