Glycans are carbohydrate chains linked to lipid or protein molecules through glycosylation, serving as highly diverse structures involved in biological functions. Glycosylation is a critical post-translational modification that influences protein folding, stability, and function and plays a vital role in numerous biological processes, including cell signaling, immune response, and disease progression. Aberrant glycosylation is often associated with conditions such as cancer, autoimmune disorders, and infectious diseases, making glycan analysis a key area of research.
Glycan detection kits are specialized tools designed to detect and analyze glycans, which are widely used in research fields such as glycomics, biopharmaceutical development, and disease biomarker discovery. The kits provide a streamlined solution for detecting and analyzing glycan structures. They typically include reagents for enzymatic digestion, labeling, and high-sensitivity detection through fluorescence, HPLC, or mass spectrometry methods. A variety of ready-to-use kits are designed for N-linked or O-linked glycan analysis, sialic acid quantification, and glycosaminoglycan profiling, among others.
Amerigo Scientific offers a wide range of glycan detection kits that simplify complex workflows, providing reliable tools to detect and analyze glycan structures, monitor glycosylation, and understand their biological implications.
