The significant complexity, similar polarity and lack of ionizable sites make the analysis of glycans an analytical challenge. These compounds are often derivatized and separated by normal-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) or capillary electrophoresis (CE) followed by UV or fluorescence detection. Due to widespread use of reversed-phase chromatography coupled to electrospray mass spectrometry as an analytical tool, our laboratory has developed this methodology for the analysis of glycans derivatized with a negatively charged tag, 8-aminonaphthalene-1,3,6-trisulfonic acid (ANTS). It is possible to exploit the ability of this negatively charged tag to interact with a mobile phase ion-pairing reagent, allowing retention on a reversed-phase C-18 column for subsequent on-line UV or MS analysis. ANTS-derivatized samples, including a maltooligosaccharide ladder and glycans released from bovine ribonuclease B, bovine fetuin, and chicken ovalbumin, were analyzed using this method. In addition to reversed-phase retention, ribonuclease B and ovalbumin derivatives displayed highly desirable isomeric separation. With the use of mass spectrometric detection for glycan identity, this allowed relative quantitation of individual components. Copyright (C) 2003 John Wiley Sons, Ltd.
