[Verification of contamination with bacterial endotoxins in blood derivatives used in coagulative disorders: observations with the Limulus test]. / Sulla verifica della contaminazione con endotossine batteriche in emoderivati utilizzati nell'area coagulativa: osservazioni col limulus test.

ABSTRACT

The AA. expose the results of an investigation for an in vitro endotoxin assay by Limulus lysate test in blood products employed in coagulative area. The Limulus assay has been shown to be a simple, rapid, accurate and sensitive method of detecting bacterial endotoxin or endotoxin-like material in these biological products.
