  • Patent number: 10078081
    Abstract: The present invention relates to methods for creating isotopically-labeled glycans or glycoconjugates for use in the analysis of glycans, and compositions produced from such methods. The present invention also relates to the use of isotopically labeled glycans or glycoconjugates as standards in glycan identification and/or quantification methods. In one embodiment, the method of the present invention can be used to accurately determine the levels of glycans in a sample based upon the addition of a known quantity of a standard comprising isotopically-labeled glycans to the sample prior to analysis. In one embodiment, the present invention relates to a composition for an analytical standard comprising one or more isotopically-labeled glycans or glycoconjugates.

  • Patent number: 9329169
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of isotopically labeling glycans and in facilitating high throughput quantitative/comparative analysis of glycomic compositions of biological cells. The method is applicable inter alia for identifying differentiated cells and their glycomic characteristics, differentiation conditions, disease and/or therapeutic progression, diagnosing disease states, determining drug activity, establishing manufacturing efficiencies and for determining the half-life of glycans in cells.
