For over 30 years, you have relied on Lonza for our bacterial endotoxin test (Bet) expertise. But we know that science is never finished. Our commitment to sustainability drives us forward, motivated by figuring out something that no one has before.
Worldwide, there is a growing appeal in the pharmaceutical industry for recombinant technologies that help alleviate, and eventually replace, the use of animal resources for endotoxin testing purposes. Adoption of recombinant test methods, like the PyroGene® rFC Assay, are on the rise. Increased use of recombinant methods has proven their equivalency to LAL-based methods and, therefore, increased confidence in implementing rFC methods in QC testing labs.
With the recombinant Factor C Assay, you can meet the demands of endotoxin testing while protecting a natural resource. Together, we safely bring your next medicine to life.
For a detailed product overview, educational materials, and scientific data about the effectiveness of rFC as a BET assay, please visit the PyroGene® rFC Product Page.
