Lens culinaris (Lentil) lectin (LCA/LCH) is labeled with tetramethylrhodamine isothiocyanate (TRITC) and combined with the appropriate amount of fluorescent dye to provide the best staining properties of this lectin. TRITC is a bright orange or red fluorescent dye whose excitation is well suited to the 532nm laser line. Tritc-labeled LCA/LCH can be used for cell imaging applications.
