Superiority of human complement for assaying bacterial lipopolysaccharides by their anticomplementary activity
Abstract
In assaying bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS) for anticomplementary activity, human complement (C) allowed detection of approximately 200 times smaller amounts of LPS than guinea-pigs C. Pig C was slightly inferior to human.
