Methods for Detection of Bacterial Endotoxin in Critical Care Medicine
https://doi.org/10.15360/1813-9779-2017-5-109-120
Abstract
Dedicated to reviewing the methods for detecting bacterial endotoxin in aqueous solutions and biological fluids, this review is focused on determining the content of endotoxin as a clinically relevant biomarker of sepsis caused by Gram-negative bacteria. The advantages and disadvantages of each method are described, and the characteristics of test systems currently used in clinical practice are listed and compared.
