Although tomato lectins share some properties with potato lectins, datura lectins, and wheat germ lectins, they are reported to be different in many ways. LEL binds well to glycoproteins and TAM-Horsfall glycoproteins and has been effectively used to label vascular endothelium in rodents. German Red ® labeled lectins have the right amount of fluorescent dye binding to provide the best staining properties for this lectin. This conjugated substance basically does not contain unconjugated fluorescent dyes. The excitation maximum is 595 nm and the emission maximum is 615 nm.
