Abstract:
Microtiter plate assays and 'lectinoblotting' with the use of biotinylated lectins are sensitive and easy to perform methods that can be combined with simple procedures of chemical modifications of glycoproteins immobilized on ELISA plates or blots (desialylation by mild acid hydrolysis, Smith degradation, beta-elimination). These modifications are helpful in the determination of lectin and anti-carbohydrate antibody specificities, or in the characterization of glycoconjugates by means of lectins and antibodies.

Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay
There are many different types of ELISAs, but they all involve an antibody molecule whose constant region binds an enzyme, leaving the variable region free to bind its specific antigen. Enzyme-substrate reaction allows the antigen to be visualized or quantified.
