Binding of acetylcholinesterases to concanavalin A

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 1974
Acetylcholinesterases from a number of different sources are known to be glycoproteins. Carbohydrate residues were found in the eel enzyme [ 1,2] , human erythrocyte acetylcholinesterase [3 ] torpedo California [4] plaice cholinesterase [ 51 and the cholinesterases from human serum [6,7], horse serum [8,9] and human brain [lo]. It was of interest to us

Longitudinal Plasmonic Detection of Glucose Using Gold Nanorods

open access: yesNanomaterials and Nanotechnology, 2014
Gold nanorod-based affinity sensors were developed utilizing concanavalin-A/dextran/glucose chemistry to detect glucose. The gold nanorods, synthesized using the seed-mediated method, were first coated with dextran sulfate.
