title: A simplified methodology for purification of peanut (Arachis hypogaea) agglutinin.
abstract: The agglutinin from peanut (Arachis hypogaea) was readily isolated by affinity chromatography on acid-treated Sepharose 6B. The recovered lectin (50 mg/100 g seeds) appeared as a single band of Mr 32,000 on gel electrophoresis and its specific haemagglutination titre on desialylated human A red blood cells was very high (2(15)).
