  • Title: Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry of polysaccharides with 2',4',6'-trihydroxyacetophenone as matrix.

    Abstract:
    So far, there have been only a few matrices reported for detection of polysaccharides with molecular weight higher than 3000 Daltons by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS). In this work, we found that 2',4',6'-trihydroxyacetophenone (THAP) is a good matrix for MALDI time-of-flight MS analysis of polysaccharides with broad mass range. Large polysaccharides, dextrans, glycoproteins and polysialic acids have been successfully detected by MALDI-MS with THAP as matrix.
