title: Probing the relevance of lectin clustering for the reliable evaluation of multivalent carbohydrate recognition.
abstract: Experiments by Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) illustrate the relevance of lectin density for the reliable evaluation of binding efficiencies in surface-based multivalent carbohydrate recognition. The difference between affinity data obtained by solution and surface-based experiments is also stressed.
