Anti-H Section is prepared from :

  • A.Dolichos biflorus seeds
  • B.Semecarpus anacardium seeds
  • C.Ulex europaeus seeds
  • D.Ricinus communis seeds

Answer: C

Anti-H lectin (printed 'Section') is prepared from Ulex europaeus seeds.

The seed extract of gorse, Ulex europaeus, contains a lectin that reacts specifically with the H antigen, the precursor substance of the ABO system. It is used to identify group O and to detect the Bombay phenotype, which lacks H.

Dolichos biflorus gives anti-A1 lectin. Semecarpus anacardium is the marking nut, whose juice causes skin lesions, and Ricinus communis is the castor plant, source of the toxin ricin. Neither provides anti-H.
