The significance of Agglutinin research

Introduction to Agglutinin Agglutinin refers to a variety of plants, invertebrates and higher animals in the purification of glycoproteins or binding sugar protein, because it can agglutinate red blood cells (blood type substances), hence the name Agglutinin. Commonly used as phytoagglutin (PNA), usually named after its extracted plants, such as Conconvalina (Conconvalina, ConA), wheat germ
