Extra Details:
Pure Solanum tuberosum lectin from potato, 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: Oligomers of N-Acetylglucosamine b(1,4) N-Acetylglucosamine Inhibitory Carbohydrate: [GlcNAc b(1,4)]3 GlcNAc > [GlcNAc b(1,4)]2 GlcNAc > GlcNAc b(1,4) GlcNAc Activity: Less than 15ug/ml will agglutinate human type O erythrocytes. The activity is greater with neuraminidase treated red blood cells. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C.
