Griffonia Simplicifolia Lectin I (GSL I) isolectin B5, Biotinylated

Product Details

Griffonia Simplicifolia Lectin I (GSL I) isolectin B4, Biotinylated, 0.5 mg, contains only the B subunits. It is a useful marker for endothelial cells from nonprimates, such as mouse, rat, rabbit, and goat, as well as a marker for non-peptidergic unmyelinated primary afferent neurons. This "B"-rich lectin preferentially agglutinates blood group B cells and is specific for alpha-galactose residues. Biotinylated GSL I-B4 has an appropriate number of biotins bound to provide the optimum staining characteristics for this lectin. This conjugate is supplied essentially free of unconjugated biotins and is preserved with sodium azide.
