About this Product
SKU:
V2121-98D
Extra Details:
Purified Vicia villosa lectin (VVA), Biotin conjugated. Lectins are derived from the extracts of plants, animals, viruses and microorganisms and are known to agglutinate red blood cells. These agglutinins can select cell types according to blood group activities utilizing sugar-binding mechanisms. Lectins form precipitates with glycoconjugates and are useful for identifying or separating oligosaccharides with identical sugar compositions such as galactose, mannose or glucose. Carbohydrate Specificity: N-Acetylgalactosamine Inhibitory Carbohydrate: N-Acetylgalactosamine Activity: More than 250ug/ml is usually required to agglutinate type A1 cells. Less than 1ug/ml will agglutinate neuraminidase treated cells regardless of blood type. Chemical Used for Conjugation: Biotinyl N-hydroxysuccinimide ester (BNOHSE) Storage and Stability: Lyophilized and reconstituted products are stable for 6 months after receipt at -20°C.
