Fluorescent Gram Stains
Wheat Germ Agglutinin (WGA) binds specifically to the cell wall of gram-positive bacteria. Therefore, when conjugated to a fluorescent dye, it can be used as a quick, sensitive, fluorescent gram stain, that can be used in conjunction with other fluorescent stains. Biotium offers WGA conjugated to a wide variety of bright, stable CF® Dyes.

A wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) lectin labeled with Biotium’s CF® Dyes or HRP. It is a carbohydrate-binding lectin that has high affinity for sialic acid and N-acetylglucosamine and stains yeast bud scars as well as the cell membrane of gram+ bacteria and mammalian cells.
