GSL I-B4 isolectin contains only the B subunits. It is a useful marker for endothelial cells from nonprimates such as mouse, rat, rabbit, and goat as well as a marker for non-peptidergic unmyelinated primary afferent neurons. This “B”-rich lectin preferentially agglutinates blood group B cells and is specific for α-galactose residues.
Although many buffers can be employed for reconstituting and diluting this lectin, 10 mM HEPES buffered saline, pH 8.5, 0.1 mM CaCl2 is recommended.For preserving solutions, stored at 4 ºC, 0.08% sodium azide can be used.
