Are there commercial sugars linked to dyes that enable monitoring of lectin-sugar binding?

30 October 2023 1 2K Report

The binding of the sugar-dye compound with a lectin should facilitate a shift in the emitted light that enables monitoring of lectin activity. Or perhaps there are other ways to monitor lectin activity apart from a heamagglutination assay?
