Title: Oligosaccharide analysis by capillary-scale high-pH anion-exchange chromatography with on-line ion-trap mass spectrometry. Author: Bruggink C, Wuhrer M, Koeleman CA, Barreto V, Liu Y, Pohl C, Ingendoh A, Hokke CH, Deelder AM. Journal: J Chromatogr B Analyt Technol Biomed Life Sci; 2005 Dec 27; 829(1-2):136-43. PubMed ID: 16246644. Abstract: A capillary-scale high-pH anion-exchange chromatography (HPAEC) system for the analysis of carbohydrates was developed, in combination with two parallel on-line detection methods of sub-picomolar sensitivity: (1) pulsed amperometric detection (PAD); (2) capillary-scale desalting followed by electrospray ion-trap (IT) mass spectrometry (MS). The capillary chromatographic system combined the superb selectivity of HPAEC that allows routine separation of isomeric oligosaccharides with the information on monosaccharide sequence and linkage positions obtained by MS/MS fragmentation using the IT-MS. The applicability of the system in biomedical research was demonstrated by its use for the analysis of a urine sample of a GM1-gangliosidosis patient. Isomeric glycans in the sample could be resolved by HPAEC and assigned on the basis of the monosaccharide linkage information revealed by on-line IT-MS/MS.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
