Antiproliferative effects of lectins from Canavalia ensiformis and Canavalia brasiliensis in human leukemia cell lines

Toxicology in Vitro, 2012
The antiproliferative activity of lectins Canavalia ensiformis (ConA) and Canavalia brasiliensis (ConBr) were studied using human leukemia MOLT-4 and HL-60 cell lines. It was revealed that both ConA and ConBr were markedly cytotoxic to cells using MTT and NAC assays.

High‐Throughput Glucose Biosensing Using Jack Bean [Canavalia ensiformis (L.) DC.] Lectin as Electrochemical Signaling Element

Electroanalysis, Volume 38, Issue 4, April 2026.
An electrochemical biosensor employing Canavalia ensiformis lectin immobilized on a Prussian Blue‐modified glassy carbon electrode was developed for label‐free glucose detection at submicromolar levels. The integration of lectin biorecognition with the conductive Prussian Blue layer ensured stable and selective signal transduction.

Bacterial Cellulose Synthase Catalyzes the Formation of Chitin

ChemistrySelect, Volume 11, Issue 15, 20 April 2026.
Recombinant BcsA‐B from Rhodobacter sphaeroides is shown to cleave UDP‐GlcNAc (uridine diphosphate N‐acetylglucosamine), generating chitin with distinct β‐chitin Raman bands. These findings reveal that a cellulose synthase can process an alternative nucleotide sugar, providing biochemical evidence for the co‐synthesis of cellulose and chitin.

Análisis de crecimiento de canavalia en zona plana del Valle del Cauca

Acta Agronómica, 2005
El análisis se realizó en condiciones de campo, en dos localidades (Candelaria y Palmira), determinando los componentes de rendimiento (kg), altura (cm) y fenología (dds/floración). Se empleó un diseño completamente al azar con cinco repeticiones.

Gene Editing and Transformation Strategies for Engineering Drought‐Tolerant Legumes

Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Legumes play a vital role in agriculture, nutrition, and the economy, but their production faces significant threats. Among these, drought and its unpredictability will be the most damaging constraint in the coming decades. Enhancing drought tolerance is essential for resilient and sustainable legume cultivation, and genetic engineering ...

Urea Biosensor Based on a Field‐Effect Capacitor Modified With a Stacked Weak Polyelectrolyte/Enzyme Bilayer

Electrochemical Science Advances, Volume 6, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Urea is formed from the metabolism of proteins and used as a biomarker for diagnosing and monitoring various medical conditions. In this work, a urea biosensor based on an electrolyte‐insulator‐semiconductor capacitor (EISCAP) modified with a stacked polyelectrolyte polyallylamine hydrochloride (PAH)/urease bilayer prepared by the layer‐by ...
