The methods proposed here use a Thermo Scientific™ Dionex™ CarboPac™ PA200 column for glycan separation by HPAE. After the separation the glycans pass through a desalting device and in to the mass spectrometer. Fragmentation of glycans in the negative mode by higher-energy collisional dissociation (HCD) provides information-rich MS2 spectra which enables glycan structure annotation. This allowed correlation of glycan structure with observed elution behavior. Here we show that in some cases, changed elution conditions can be used to resolve different glycan structures.
This application shows a method for HPLC-CAD analysis of polysorbate 80 and insulin in a biopharmaceutical formulation. The characterization and quantification of polysorbates is difficult because these compounds are heterogeneous mixtures with no chromophore. Because polysorbates are used in final formulations, determination of lot-to-lot variability is critical to both the pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical industries.

Compare your results with the one reported in the quality assurance report. At least three injections should be made.

This study demonstrates use of a commercially available glycopeptide standard as a control to determine glycoprotein hydrolysis reaction efficiency. Because the monosaccharide composition of glycopeptide is known, hydrolysis efficiency under a set of conditions can be easily calculated. The monosaccharide yield for the glycopeptide was compared with that of two glycoproteins under identical conditions. This comparison revealed efficient hydrolysis using the conditions tested here. Minimally the glycopeptide standard serves as a positive control for glycoprotein monosaccharide determination.

This work demonstrates an improved HPAE-PAD method using a recently introduced Thermo Scientific™ Dionex™ CarboPac™ PA20 column with 4 μm particle size to simultaneously quantify six major monosaccharides present in glycoprotein acid digests. The total run time is 20 min as compared to 32 min with the method using a 6.5 μm particle size column. The smaller particle size of this column offers higher peak efficiencies, leading to high-resolution separations and allowing a shorter column format and, ultimately, significantly shorter run times. An ICS-6000 can be used for this application.
The biopharmaceutical industry requires reliable high throughput analysis of N-linked glycans. Many of the commonly used analytical approaches are based on derivatization, which is known to introduce differential loss of sialic acid and incomplete labeling. Preparation of native glycans is not subject to these concerns. This approach starts with a fast in-solution glycoprotein digestion to obtain oligosaccharides. These native glycans are then analyzed by high-performance anion-exchange chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection coupled to MS. This record is for neutral and IgG glycans.
