Procainamide Labeling Kit

Procainamide labeling permits glycan identification by either mass spectrometry or UHPLC. Because of its improved ionisation efficiency compared to 2-AB labelling, it can permit identification of minor glycans (1% relative peak area) by ESI-MS.

Product Description

Ludger’s procainamide labeling kit is suitable for N-glycans, O-glycans, GSL-glycans, heparin or any sugar with a reducing terminus. It uses the same reductive amination labeling method that has been used for 2-AB and 2-AA. Procainamide labeling is suitable 25 pmol – 25 nmol samples.

The kit contains reagents for the conjugation of dye to the free reducing end of the glycan by a reductive amination reaction with essentially stoichiometric labeling. Any purified glycans with free reducing termini can be labeled.

Procainamide labeling permits glycan identification by either mass spectrometry or (U)HPLC. Because of its improved ionisation efficiency compared to 2AB labeling it can permit identification of minor glycans (<1% relative peak area) by ESI-MS.
