Isolation of Immunomodulatory Lectin From Seeds of Zizyphus Mauritiana.

Isolation of Immunomodulatory Lectin From Seeds of Zizyphus Mauritiana.

“…Isolation and purification of lectin from cotyledons of Zizyphus mauritiana was done as described earlier (Butle and Patil, 2016). Cotyledons were crushed in mortar pestle using liquid nitrogen treatment and homogenized with 0.02M sodium phosphate buffered saline (PBS) at pH 7.…”

“…Therefore, there is a need of most potent natural immunomodulatory molecules having minor or no adverse effects in the coming decades of 21 st century. In the presented work the lectin was isolated by the standard protocols from the seeds of Zizyphus mauritiana and tested for the in vitro immunomodulatory activity (Butle and Patil, 2016).…”
