The retention times of oligosaccharides containing N-acetyl amino sugars in reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography are sensitive both to chain length and to stereochemical differences. Data showing that oligosaccharides of human milk can be fractionated according to stereochemistry on C-18 columns using water as eluant is presented. Detection at the nanomolar level is possible using UV absorption at 190 nm as a result of the acetamido group. The separation of linkage isomers by fractionation of 2 tetrasaccharides of identical carbohydrate composition, lacto-N-tetraose and lacto-N-neotetraose, and by the separation of 2 isomeric pentasaccharides, lacto-N-fucopentaose I and II, is shown. In some cases it was possible to preparatively fractionate pure oligosaccharides from complex mixtures. The identity and purity of the oligosaccharides was determined by proton-NMR spectroscopy at 300 MHz in which structural reporter protons are identified for the different isomeric oligosaccharides. In addition to assignment of the anomeric proton resonances, it was possible to assign H4 of galactose linked at O3 and fucose H5 and H6 resonances.
