The Endosafe® Nexus™ is the first fully automated robotic system designed specifically for endotoxin testing in the central QC lab. Ideal for high-volume water testing or samples that require dilutions, consistent endotoxin testing with the Nexus™ reduces variability and the need for subsequent investigations. The Nexus™ utilizes innovative LAL cartridge technology, a state-of-the-art liquid handling system and simple data management software to test 48 to 60 samples with minimal preparation and supervision.
Endotoxin Test Technology
The Nexus™ is a novel robotic system that incorporates proven innovative technologies, including the Endosafe®-MCS™ multicartridge system and FDA-licensed Endosafe®-PTS™ cartridges.
The disposable PTS™ cartridges contain precise amounts of LAL reagent, chromogenic substrate and control standard (CSE). They are manufactured in accordance with rigid QC procedures and have been approved by the FDA for in-process and final product release testing. The MCS™ uses LAL kinetic chromogenic methodology that measures color intensity directly related to the endotoxin concentration in a sample. The MCS™ was designed to be compliant with global pharmacopoeial methods, meet the BET criteria for photometric techniques and be consistent with the FDA’s PAT initiative.
