PERELLO, HELEN P. Determination of Hemagglutinating Activity of Lectin From Hemolymph of Social Bees (Hymenoptera: Apidae). Undergraduate Thesis. Bachelor of Science in Agriculture major in Crop Protection-Entomology. Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite. April 2002. Adviser: Dr. Evelyn O. Singson.
The experiment was conducted at Crop Protection Laboratory, Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite and Biochemistry Research Laboratory, University of the Philippines, Los Banos Laguna from October to December 2001 to detect the presence of lectin from selected species of social bees, determine the hemagglutinating activity of lectin in terms of blood specificity and Calcium dependency and compare lectin activity under room (30°C) and low (4°C) temperature. The three species of social bees such as Apis mellifera, Apis cerana and Trigona sp produced positive agglutination. The specific lectins determined were categorized as non-blood specific. Moreover, it is classified as a non C-type lectin and a non-cold agglutinin. However, Apis mellifera obtained the highest titer value among the other species and could be used as a potential lectin source.
