    Abstract Copolymer particles for removal of endotoxins (lipopolysaccharides, LPSs) were prepared by suspension copolymerization of γ-cyclodextrin (CyD) and 1,6-hexamethylenediisocyanate. The LPS-removing activity of the copolymer particles was compared with that of poly(ε-lysine)-immobilized Cellufine (cationic adsorbent) or polystyrene particles (hydrophobic adsorbent) by a batch method. When DNA was present in solution with LPSs under physiological conditions (pH 6.0, ionic strength of μ = 0.05-0.8), LPS-removing activity of the cationic or hydrophobic adsorbent was unsatisfactory because both the DNA and the LPSs were adsorbed onto each adsorbent. By contrast, the copolymer particles with γ-CyD cavity (CyD content: 14-20 mol%) could selectively remove LPSs from a DNA solution (50 μg ml(-1), pH 6.0, and μ = 0.05-0.2) containing LPSs (15 EU ml(-1)) without the adsorption of DNA. The residual concentration of LPSs in the treated DNA solution was below 0.1 EU ml(-1), and the recovery of DNA was 99%.

    Abstract To assay lipopolysaccharides (LPSs) in solutions containing Limulus amebocyte lysate (LAL)-inhibiting or LAL-enhancing compounds, we developed a selective endotoxin (LPS) assay using poly(epsilon-lysine)-immobilized cellulose beads (PL-Cellufine) and LAL. The PL-Cellufine can adsorb LPSs in a solution containing certain compounds (NaCl, proteins and amino acids) at an ionic strength of mu = 0.05-0.4 at neutral pH. The LPSs adsorbed on the PL-Cellufine were separated from the compounds by centrifugation and then the PL-Cellufine was suspended in LPS-free water. The LPS activities of the suspension are directly assayed by a turbidimetric time assay with the LAL reagent. The accuracy of the adsorption method was high compared with those of common solution methods. As for the common method, the apparent recovery of LPS from the compounds was 40-95%. This suggests that these compounds inhibit the LAL procedure. By contrast, the adsorption method showed good LPS recovery (88-120%) in all cases, without being inhibited or enhanced by the compounds.

    Abstract We developed a selective endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide; LPS) assay using poly(epsilon-lysine)-immobilized cellulose beads (PL-Cellufine) and Limulus amoebocyte lysate (LAL). First, LPS was selectively adsorbed on the beads in a solution containing various LAL-inhibiting or LAL-enhancing compounds (e.g., amino acids, enzymes) and the LPS adsorbed on the beads was separated from the compounds by centrifugation. Second, the LPS adsorbed on the beads directly reacted with the LAL reagent, and the LPS concentration was determined by a turbidimetric time assay. The accuracy of the adsorption method with PL-Cellufine was high compared with that of a common solution method. Apparent recovery of LPS from compound solution was 88-120%.

    Abstract The removal of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from a contaminated DNA solution was achieved using cross-linked cyclodextrin (CyD polymer) beads as LPS adsorbents. The LPS-removing activity of the β- and γ-CyD polymer beads was compared with that of common cationic LPS adsorbents. The γ-CyD polymer beads selectively removed LPS from a DNA solution (50 µg mL(-1), pH 6, ionic strength μ = 0.2) containing natural LPS (15 EU mL(-1)), without the adsorption of DNA. The adsorptions of LPS and DNA were 85% and <1%, respectively.

    Abstract Affinity column chromatography is a promising method for the purification of flavivirus particles that can supplement or potentially replace diafiltration and sucrose density centrifugation. In this study, the purification of West Nile Virus (WNV) antigens via Cellufine Sulfate column chromatography was examined. Virus-like particles (VLPs) produced by the expression of the prM and E genes were separated from most of the contaminant proteins with 0.2-0.4M NaCl, but still retained their spherical forms and immunogenicity in mice. The column, with a 1 mL bed-volume, concentrated WN-VLPs a minimum of 15 fold from culture supernatants. A heparin analogue, suramin, competitively eluted WN-VLPs, but sulphated polysaccharides, such as heparin, heparin sulfate and dextran sulfate, did not. Furthermore, 2.4 × 10⁹ plaque forming units of WNV and 196 μg of the viral antigens were recovered from 60 mL of infected culture medium at high yields (93% and 96%, respectively). These results indicate that, in addition to conventional methods, Cellufine Sulfate column chromatography is an effective preparation technique for WNV particulate antigens that does not impair the antigen virological characteristics.
