Description : Wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) is a lectin that is affinity purified from Triticum vulgaris and non-enzymatically binds to N-acetyl-D-glucosamine and sialic acid residues of glycoproteins and glycolipids. This lectin protects Triticum vulgaris from insects, yeast and bacteria. WGA consists of two subunits and has a molecular weight of 36 kDa. It is an acidic protein and has mitogenic activity toward lymphocytes. It agglutinates erythrocytes and most types of malignant cells. BlackPearl® is an agarose matrix embedded within MagneZoomTM paramagnetic beads. Agarose is activated by aldehyde to couple with Triticum vulgaris Lectin (WGA) - BlackPearl® and obtain maximum binding per bead for iP applications.
