Table 2. Amount of different gps giving 50% inhibition of binding of Gleheda (5 ng/50 μl) to asialo PSM (2 ng/50 μl).

The inhibitory activity was estimated from the inhibition curve in Figure 3 and is expressed as the amount of inhibitor giving 50% inhibition. Total volume was 50 μl. Relative potency=quantity of Gal (curve 26) required for 50% inhibition is taken as 1.0/quantity of sample required for 50% inhibition.
