Storage Instructions
Reconstituted sugar solutions should be stored frozen or stored at 4 ºC using sodium azide (0.08%) as a preservative.
Usage Summary
Reconstitute the sugar in 5 ml of distilled or deionized water or in 5 ml of a buffer (e.g. 10 mM HEPES buffered saline, pH 7.5-pH 8.0) or salt solution compatible with the lectin under study. If reconstituted in 5 ml, this sugar will be 400 mM. This sugar is suitable for diluting labeled lectins to demonstrate lectin specificity by inhibiting binding or for eluting glycoconjugates from agarose-bound lectins.
Applications
Immunohistochemistry / Immunocytochemistry, Immunofluorescence, Glycobiology, Affinity Chromatography
