TECHNICAL REPORT
Low Endotoxin Recovery (LER): A Review
by Associates of Cape Cod.
Low Endotoxin Recovery (LER) has been a topic of considerable discussion and interest. The issue concerns the inability to detect some or all of the endotoxin added to certain families of drug products or components of drug product. The FDA has increased their interest in this phenomenon as it raises the concern that contaminant endotoxin in drug products might not be detected during release testing. The concern is heightened by reports that samples to which endotoxin has been added but in which it is not detectable by the bacterial endotoxins test using LAL reagent, were pyrogenic in pyrogen tests performed with rabbits.
The recognition of the LER issue increases the importance of proper method development and validation so that endotoxin in product (whether present as a contaminant or because it has been added) is appropriately detected. Click here to read more.

EVENTS
SBI Webinar: Detect and Quantify Regulatory RNAs by qPCR
Date: Thursday, February 26, 2015 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM EST
The potential functions of regulatory RNAs are now being explored as key layers of genome biology. Aberrant expression of these RNAs has been linked to cancer and other diseases. The RNAs hold promise in the areas of identifying novel therapies and for understanding complex cellular network signaling pathways. SBI has developed a regulatory RNA qPCR profiler that contains validated assays for the top regulatory RNAs involved in Cancer and Stem Cells.
