LPS is the principal component of Gram-negative bacteria that activates the innate immune system. LPS recognition is predominantly mediated by Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and ultimately leads to the activation of NF-κB and the production of proinflammatory cytokines [1]. LPS-B5 is a preparation of smooth (S)-form LPS from the Gram-negative bacteria E. coli 055:B5. LPS-B5 is the prototypical endotoxin and is often used as an endotoxin standard in Limulus amebocyte lysate (LAL) assays. In particular, LPS-B5 is highly pyrogenic and a potent activator of TLR4 [2].
InvivoGen provides LPS-B5 with two grades of purity:
LPS-B5 is a standard lipopolysaccharide (LPS) preparation extracted by a phenol-water mixture. LPS-B5 contains other bacterial components, such as lipoproteins, and therefore stimulates both TLR4 and TLR2.
LPS-B5 Ultrapure is extracted by successive enzymatic hydrolysis steps and purified by the previously described phenol-TEA-DOC extraction protocol [3]. This process removes contaminating lipoproteins, and therefore LPS-B5 Ultrapure only activates TLR4.

Specificity:
LPS-B5 (Standard): TLR2/TLR4 agonist
LPS-B5 Ultrapure: TLR4 agonist
Working concentrations :
LPS-B5 (Standard):
• TLR4 activity: 100 pg - 1 μg/ml
• TLR2 activity: 100 ng/ml - 1mg/ml
