Extra Details:: Pure Arachis hypogaea lectin (PNA) from peanut, TRITC 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: Terminal beta galactose Inhibitory Carbohydrate: Lactose ≥ beta galactose Activity: Less than 1ug/ml will agglutinate human erythrocytes neuraminidase treatment of the cells. Chemical Used for Conjugation: TRITC Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for 6 months after receipt at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
