Effect of Increasing Concentration of i.p. LPS (0, 0.05, 0.1, 1.0, 10.0 mg/kg Body Weight) on Mouse Plasma LPS Level in Vivo

LPS (mg/kg)	0 hours (ng/mL)	1 hour (ng/mL)	24 hours (ng/mL)
0.05	0.017	0.366	0.020
0.1	0.017	2.230	0.405
1	0.018	1327.1	20.732
10	0.018	13,491.0	252.427

Plasma LPS level was measured prior to i.p. LPS injection and 1 hour and 24 hours post-LPS injection (n = 3 to 4).
