1 Numbers in red show an increase in lectin affinity (Up) following incubation with neuraminidase, whereas numbers in green represent a decrease in lectin affinity (Down) following enzymatic digestion. 2 Statistics were performed using a paired t-test * p > 0.05, ** p > 0.01, *** p > 0.0005, **** p > 0.00001.
