Did you know that air pollutants contain harmful lipopolysaccharides? 🦠
👉 According to the United Nations Agency, the most hazardous air pollutants for public health are gases and particulate matter like PM2.5, which contain endotoxins.
These pollutants can cause numerous diseases affecting the heart and lungs, and excessive exposure to certain endotoxins can even damage kidney function.
High levels of endotoxins are common in some work environments such as barns, composting facilities and some cheese factories. 🧀
Given these significant and growing risks, LPS controls are essential! 🕵️
🙋♀️ LPS-BioSciences can help quantify endotoxins in the environment.
