Synonym: Ulex europaeus agglutinin; UEA-I
Product Type: Chemical
| assay | 70.00-90.00% (Lowry) |
| biological source | Ulex europaeus |
| composition | Protein, ~80% Lowry |
| conjugate | peroxidase conjugate |
| form | lyophilized powder |
| peroxidase activity | ≥15 units/mg protein |
| potency | <40 μg/mL agglutination activity |
