Lectin from Triticum vulgaris (wheat)
SIGMA/L9640 - lyophilized powder
Synonym: WGA; Wheat germ agglutinin
Product Type: Chemical
Agglutination
assay: Lectin from Triticum vulgaris (wheat) (Cat. No.
L9640) at a concentration of ~1mg solid/mL was serially diluted (2-fold, top
to bottom of plate) and incubated with erythrocytes type: A (4% v/v RBC) to
calculate Minimum agglutination titer (MAT). Agglutination is defined as the
inability of cells to form a tight button. PBS was used as blank.

| composition | Protein, 100% biuret |
| form | lyophilized powder |
| impurities | salt, essentially free |
| potency | <20 μg/mL agglutination activity |
| Quality Level | 300  |
| storage temp. | 2-8°C |
| Analysis Note: | Agglutination activity is expressed in μg/ml and is determined from serial dilutions in phosphate buffered saline, pH 6.8, of a 1 mg/ml solution. This activity is the lowest concentration to agglutinate a 2% suspension of human erythrocytes after 1 hour incubation at 25 °C. |
