We have shown previously that IgM from Ehrlich tumor (ET)-immunized mice, recognizing ET cell surface carbohydrates, protects control mice to a subsequent tumor challenge. The factors involved in such IgM-mediated protection were unknown, since it was independent of complement activation.

Endotoxins liberated by gram-negative bacteria are frequent contaminants of aqueous and physiological solutions. Because of their potent biological effects in vivo and in vitro, it is often necessary to eliminate even minute quantities of endotoxin from such solutions. A process

To investigate the role of endotoxin in grain dust-induced airway inflammation, we reduced the endotoxin activity from extracts of corn dust (CDE), using three distinct methods, and determined the effect of endotoxin activity on the in vitro and in vivo

A new affinity column packing for removal of endotoxins has been prepared by coupling USP drug-quality polymyxin B to Affi-Prep, a novel synthetic macroporous polymer. Affi-Prep Polymyxin binds endotoxins from a number of different strains of gram-negative bacteria. Endotoxin binding

Macrophages infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis undergo increased rates of apoptosis. Important objectives are to define the microbial factors that cause apoptosis, the mechanisms involved and the impact on infection. The 19-kDa M. tuberculosis glycolipoprotein (p19) is both cell wall-associated and
