Abstract
The natural heterogeneity of glycoprotein glycans requires that chromatography be an essential part of structural elucidation. The isomeric nature of oligosaccharide structure requires chromatography which is selective for not only composition, size and anomerity, but also ring substitutions and branching configurations. HPAEC is sensitive to these structural features and thus, has become an important new method for understanding the elusive function of glycoprotein glycans.Entities:
