Thermo Fisher, L32482, Lycopersicon Esculentum (Tomato) Lectin (LEL, TL), Texas Red

Thermo Fisher, L32482, Lycopersicon Esculentum (Tomato) Lectin (LEL, TL), Texas Red Lycopersicon esculentum (Tomato) Lectin (LEL, TL), Texas Red, is a bright-red LEL-fluorophore conjugate. The tomato lectin LEL is widely used as marker of blood vessels and microglial cells in rodents and in neuroscience research. It is a valuable tool in studies of rodent tumor angiogenesis and the tracing of neovascular development in xenograft models and brain research. LEL-Texas Red can be applied directly to tissue sections, or it can be introduced through intravascular perfusion for fluorescence detection.
