PROCESS FOR MEASURING ENDOTOXIN

摘要

Endotoxin contents in samples can be determined qualitatively or quantitatively, singly or in parallel, with high precision in a short time by a process comprising applying a light to each sample solution, measuring an initial transmitted light amount I0 and a transmitted light amount at a time t, I(t), to give a ratio R(t) = I(t)/I0, and judging a gelation point by a threshold value of R(t), or further obtaining a gelation time from the gelation point. An apparatus used therefor is also disclosed.
