Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A glycan array is the best choice for detecting lectins on the surface of pathogenic and nonpathogenic bacteria as it allows for the screening of a large number of glycans at once, including those present on the bacterial surface. HPLC and column chromatography are not designed for this purpose, and MALDI-TOF may not be sensitive enough to detect low levels of lectins.
