Dolichos Biflorus Agglutinin (DBA), Fluorescein, 5 mg, is a conjugated form of the DBA lectin. It has a molecular weight of about 111 kDa and comprises four subunits of approximately equal size. DBA has a carbohydrate specificity toward alpha-linked N-acetylgalactosamine and has been used both to establish secretor status in blood group A individuals by hemagglutination inhibition techniques and for blood typing. DBA has also been used as a general marker of developing renal collecting ducts. Fluorescein-labeled Dolichos Biflorus Agglutinin has an appropriate number of fluorochromes bound to provide the optimum staining characteristics for this lectin and is supplied essentially free of unconjugated fluorochromes. Fluorescein has an excitation maximum of 495 nm and an emission maximum of 515 nm.
