Abstract
The recent studies on different lectin and their agglutination activity have attained a distinct importance because of the wide range of applicability to problems of immune biology and clinical pathology. Now a days cancer is a fatal disease. It is wide occurrence in the people, especially in the labour class living in the polluted areas. The studies done on lectin shows that lectins are antitumor and anticancerous. So there may be correlation between increase or decrease in the lectin content and their hemagglutination activity with water pollution and in turn with their biological role. There may also be difference in their subunits and difference in their physiochemical properties due to water pollution. Reliable and economical quantification of micronutrients in diets of humans is critical component of successful epidemiological studies to establish relationships between dietary constituents and chronic disease. Legumes are one of the major dietary components consumed by populations worldwide. consumption of legumes is thought to play a major role in lowering breast and prostate cancer risks. Recently, it has been suggested that consumption of soyfoods may contribute to the relatively low rates of breast colon and prostrate cancers in countries such as China and Japan. Soyabeans contain a number of anti - carcinogens, and a recent National Cancer Institute workshop recommended that the role of soyfoods in cancer prevention be investigated.
