One of the main aims of endotoxin researchers for almost half a century to date has been to discover the intrinsic chemical nature of endotoxin from complicated chemical complexes of enormous molecular weight. The lipopolysaccharide-protein complex which proved to exhibit all the activities of endotoxin was first isolated from the cell wall of gram-negative bacteria. After precise immunochemical studies on endotoxin by several pioneers, the portion called free lipid A was claimed by Westphal and Lüderitz to be responsible for the endotoxin activities. This was in the early 1950’s. Much experimental data was collected to prove that free lipid A is the sole structure responsible for endotoxicity (5).
