NEP Control HKSA- PyroMAT^® System MAT

The PyroMAT^® System uses cryopreserved Mono-Mac-6 (MM6) human monocytic cells as a source of monocytes. The response to a full range of pyrogens, including endotoxins and non-endotoxin pyrogens (NEPs)is determined by the measurement of interleukin-6 (IL-6) produced by the Mono-Mac-6 cells using ELISA.
NEP control HKSA is a heat-killed preparation of Staphylococcus aureus, supplied in a lyophilized form. HKSA is a non-endotoxin pyrogen (NEP) that activates the TLR2 receptor of monocytes and can be used as a positive control with the PyroMAT^® System (Monocyte Activation Test for pyrogen detection).

NEP control of heat-killed Staphylococcus aureus can be used as a positive control with the PyroMAT^® System. It is to be used for Product Specific Validation (PSV) and routine testing to show that the system can detect non-endotoxin pyrogen contaminants in pharmaceutical products.
