Antibodies to Lectins

Glycan Analysis | Antibodies to Lectins

Vector Laboratories offers a dedicated selection of high-quality antibodies to plant-derived lectins, designed to enhance specificity and detection in glycobiology research. These antibodies are raised in goat and rabbit hosts by immunizing with purified lectins, and are affinity-purified on lectin-agarose matrices for exceptional performance.

Available in both unconjugated and biotinylated formats, these antibodies are optimized for use in immunohistochemistry (IHC), immunofluorescence (IF), ELISA, western blotting, and neuronal tracing applications. They provide critical tools for detecting lectin receptors, mapping glycan patterns, and amplifying signals in tissue and cell samples.

The catalog includes antibodies against widely used lectins, such as:

• Griffonia simplicifolia lectin I (GSL I/BSL I);
• Peanut Agglutinin (PNA);
• Phaseolus vulgaris agglutinin (E+L);
• Ricinus communis agglutinin (RCA I and II);
• Wheat Germ Agglutinin (WGA).

Ideal for both basic and applied glycobiology workflows, Vector’s antibodies to lectins support sensitive, reproducible detection, and enable deeper insights into glycan expression and distribution.
