A Simple Electrochemical System to Evaluate Interactions between Bauhinia monandra Leaf Lectin (BmoLL) and Cratylia mollis Seed Lectin (Cramoll) Immobilized in Nafion Nanopores with Pseudomonas aeruginosa Endophytic Strain

July 14, 2021

The interaction of lectins immobilised in Nafion nanopores with Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains was studied using an electrochemical device. BmoLL, a leaf lectin specific for galactose obtained from Bauhinia monandra leaves, interacted with P. aeruginosa strain UFPEDA598, an endophytic bacterium isolated from B. monandra leaves. Cramoll is a seed lectin...

Evaluation of Toxicity on Mice and Artemicidal Activity of Bauhinia monandra Leaf Lectin (BmoLL)

November 18, 2019

Aims: This work aimed to determine the toxicity of Bauhinia monandra leaf lectin (BmoLL) to mice and Artemia salina. Study design: BmoLL was purified from the leaves of B. monandra through affinity chromatography and tested against mice and A. salina in order to evaluate its toxicity. Methodology: The lectin...
