| Abstract: | A C-type mannose specific lectin (LRP) isolated from plasma of fresh water fishLabeo rohita showed 500 times higher specificity towards cell surface oligosaccharide (LAM) ofMycobacterium tuberculosis (H37Rv). Using biotinylated LRP, binding between lectin and LAM was demonstrated by ELISA and it was observed that even 3ng of oligosaccharides might be detected using only 1μg of biotinylated lectin. |
