Vegetable gums modify lectin hemagglutinability
1Universidad Central de Venezuela, Centro de Biología Celular, Caracas.
Abstract:
Arabic gum enhances lectin hemagglutinability. The more glycosylated the lectin, the greater the stimulatory effect of the gum. Evidence presented suggests that the interaction between gum and lectin is of a carbohydrate-carbohydrate nature.
