Glycoprotein to identified glycans

Fast glycan labeling and analysis kits

Obtain high resolution glycan data for released glycan profiling.

Confident N-glycan profiling with capillary electrophoresis

Obtain high resolution glycan data and rapidly identify glycan heterogeneity, including sialylated N-glycans.

Simplified sample preparation, rapid separations and automated glycan identification provide the information needed to make confident decisions quickly.  

Enable the characterization of more samples for comparability assessments or minimize the time needed to course correct processes from development through to commercialization.  

For use on the PA 800 Plus system and the BioPhase 8800 system 

Analytical throughput needs change during drug development.  Fast glycan labeling and analysis kits are available for both the single capillary PA800 Plus system and the multi-capillary BioPhase 8800 system.

  • Faster than HILIC:  Perform rapid glycan separation while retaining high resolution information on n-glycan profiles
  • Easy sample preparation: Sample clean up with magnetic-bead technology enable sample preparation in just an hour
  • Automation friendly:  Magnetic bead technology eliminates the need for ultra-centrifugation or advanced pipetting techniques

Validated kits for glycan profiling

Fast glycan labeling and analysis kit for the PA800 Plus system

The fast glycan labeling and analysis kit is designed for use on the PA 800 Plus system and is used to rapidly label glycoprotein released N-Glycans with APTS followed by the effective removal of the excess dye using a magnetic bead-based clean-up.   

The labeled glycans are separated by high-resolution capillary electrophoresis utilizing laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) detection and the HR-NCHO separation gel.  Glycan identification is determined based on their normalized electrophoretic mobility referenced against pre-determined GU values using the appropriate bracketing standard.  

This kit provides reagent volumes for analysis of 100 samples

BioPhase fast glycan labeling and analysis kit

The BioPhase fast glycan labeling and analysis kit enables comprehensive, high-resolution characterization of glycosylated biotherapeutics on a diverse array of N-glycan species while maintaining screening throughput. 

Simplified sample preparation with magnetic bead technology combines with rapid separation on 8 parallel capillaries to enable glycan analysis at a rate of 1 minute per sample.

This kit provides reagent volumes for analysis of 200 samples.
