Native Arachis hypogaea Lectin (PNA), Polystyrene Beads-Conjugated

• Cat.No.: PNA-585P
• Product Overview: Native Peanut Arachis hypogaea Lectin (PNA) - Polystyrene Beads
  Hazardous Shipping: Non-hazardous

Specification

• Species: Peanut
• Source: Peanut
• Description: Affinity-purified PNA was immobilized to carboxylated polystyrene beads by covalently coupling with EDC (1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride) to ensure proper configuration and stability of the lectin. Polystyrene beads are of durable material, chemically and immunologically inert with a long shelf life. Polystyrene bead columns with immobilized antigen/antibody can be re-used without loss of activity. Coupled polystyrene beads come as a suspension. Arachis hypogaea agglutinin (PNA) is purified by affinity chromatography and is consisting of four subunits of approximately 27,000 each. This lectin has an isoelectric point between pH 5. 5 and pH 6. 5. PNA may be used for clinical determination of T-polyagglutinability of erythrocytes and probing cell membranes of normal and malignant cells. This lectin can be of use in characterization of tumor-specific antigens on the surface of malignant cells. It can be employed in the fractionation of stem cells in mice for use in bone marrow transplantation across histocompatibility barriers.
