Abstract: A pharmaceutical composition containing a lyophilized saccharide-degrading enzyme having excellent titer, and a package containing the pharmaceutical composition. The pharmaceutical composition is a unit dose formulation containing a lyophilized saccharide-degrading enzyme with a titer of not less than 0.3 unit/?g as an active ingredient, and contains the saccharide-degrading enzyme in an amount of not less than 2 ?g and not more than 6 ?g.

Abstract: Provided is a technology related to a horseshoe crab factor B variant, and also provided is means for performing endotoxin measurement with high sensitivity. A polypeptide having an amino acid sequence in which the amino acid residue at the 193-position in an amino acid sequence of a polypeptide of horseshoe crab factor B is substituted with a cysteine (Cys) residue, is produced. Endotoxin measurement can be carried out with high sensitivity by configuring a Limulus reagent by combining this polypeptide with horseshoe crab factor C.
