Concanavalin A Coated - 96 well plates - 8 Well Breakable Strips on single well holding frame

Concanavalin A Plates 96-Well Breakable Strip Plates: Composed of 12 breakable strips of 8 wells, these plates allow easy customization by breaking and repositioning strips or single wells as required.

Concanavalin A Coated Plates are designed for the specific binding of carbohydrate fractions in glycoproteins, enzymes, and cell membranes. Derived from Canavalia ensiformis (jack bean), Concanavalin A is a lectin commonly used for isolating glyco-conjugates and glycoproteins with specific carbohydrate structures. These plates provide a highly sensitive platform for ELISA assays and are ideal for applications involving glycoproteins, glycopeptides, enzyme-antibody conjugates, as well as interactions with polysaccharides, glycolipids, cell membranes, hormones, and hormone receptors. Their versatility makes them a reliable tool for assays focused on carbohydrate-protein interactions.

Concanavalin A Coated 96 Well Plates are pre-blocked in order to minimize any non-specific binding and to ensure long-term stability.

Concanavalin A Coated Plates are available in clear, white, and black polystyrene in Breakable Strip, Strip and Solid format. They are suitable for ELISA, Luminescence, Fluorescence, and Chemiluminescent assays.

Background

Concanavalin A Coated Surface offers a powerful and sensitive instrument for binding in specific way the carbohydrate fraction of glycoproteins, enzymes and cell membranes.
Concanavalin A Coated Surface shows specific affinity for molecules containing α-D-mannopyranosyl, α-D-glucopyrannosyl and sterically related and binds in specific way the carbohydrate fraction of glycoproteins, enzymes and cell membranes.

Concanavalin A, belonging to the lectins family, is a Hemagglutinin from the common jack bean Canavalia ensiformis. It is well known that lectins have been used extensively for the isolation of glyco-conjugates and glycoproteins with specific carbohydrate structures.

The optical properties of polystyrene remain unchanged, allowing the use of the modified surface as a powerful tool for diagnostic assays.
