I am having a problem using candida as a stimulator for peripheral blood lymphocytes

[Christina Kaufman]

I am having a problem using candida as a stimulator for peripheral blood
lymphocytes 
(human) in thymidine uptake proliferation assays.  Using CFDASE I noticed
that B cells 
were also proliferating, and it turns out that my commercial source (Greer)
does not test 
for endotoxin, and in fact my candida has a good bit of LPS in it.

Is anyone else using candida for in vitro proliferation assays, and if so,
how are you 
dealing with the endotoxin contamination?
