摘要: The present invention relates to substances which bind with high affinity endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide [LPS]), and are useful for the prevention or treatment of, example, Gram-negative Gram-positive bacterial sepsis, of fungal infections as well neutralizing effects associated heparin. LPS-binding peptides comprising an domain. In addition, DNA sequences encoding said peptides, recombinant microorganisms containing DNA, pharmaceutical compositions invention, diagnostic kits. also encompasses methods detection removal LPS from solutions.
