Abstract

Onion (Allium cepa), a bulb crop of economic importance, is known to have many health benefits. It is considered as an immune–boosting food rich in organosulfur compounds and fructans. The major objective of the present study was to address the immunomodulatory properties of onion lectin (A. cepa agglutinin; ACA) and fructans.
