The N-and 0-glycosidically linked carbohydrate chains of glycoproteins have traditionally been distinguished by the stability of the former and the lability of the latter to mild alkali (eg 0.05~-sodium hydroxide at 37-50 C). Mildalkali treatment was originally used to release 0-linked chains under conditions allowing the partial degradation (referred to as ‘peeling’) of the released oligosaccharides (Lloyd et a [., 1968). Subsequently, 1 M-sodium borohydride was added to the mild base (Iyer & Carlson, 1971; Anderson et al., 1972). This alkaline borohydride-degradation condition, popularly known as the Carlson degradation, prevents the peeling reaction by immediate reduction of the released chains. However, it has recently been suggested that the sodium borohydride results in a substantial release
