Analysis of Acidic Oligosaccharides and Glycopeptides by Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry

Abstract: 2,5-Dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHB) is the most commonly used matrix for matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI/TOF) of oligosaccharides. Because acidic, sialylated oligosaccharides are detected at only the low picomole level with DHB, alternative matrices were screened to identify a matrix with a lower limit of detection. Negative-ion spectra of pure mono-, di-, and trisialylated oligosaccharides were acquired with either 6-aza-2-thiothymine or 2',4',6'-trihydroxyaceto… Show more

“…Preparation of glycans for MALDI-TOF-MS analysis 36| Analyze permethylated glycans using the DHB matrix (option A) and desialylated native N-glycans isolated from gel-separated glycoproteins and purified glycans using a non-porous graphitized carbon mini-column using the THAP monohydrate matrix (option B) 44 . The THAP monohydrate matrix gives better results than the DHB matrix for sialylated and native glycans, especially when you work on small amounts 45 .…”

“…This can lead to a small amount of polymer nonsolvent in the final mixture, which can affect the signal reproducibility. 18 Therefore, other sample preparation techniques for improved reproducibility and analytic results were developed including vacuum drying, 24 overlayer ͑two-layer or seed layer͒, 25,26 or fast evaporation. 27 All mentioned methods have in common the effort to control the crystallinity of the utilized matrix and therefore the improvement of the analytical results.…”

“…The main advantage of the multiple layer technique is the possibility to freely select a solvent/matrix combination that allows good crystallization of the matrix layer and therefore provides improved MALDI-TOFMS results. 19,24,26,27 More- over, a considerable time-saving effect was recognized when comparing the multiple layer spotting technique with the dried droplet technique, since the mixing step is completely removed from the protocol. Figure 2͑a͒ shows optical microscopy pictures of the matrix layer of a 36 member library of MALDI-TOFMS samples that were prepared utilizing the multiple layer approach.…”

“…There are various types of sample preparation methods for MALDI-TOF-MS analysis, such as the drieddroplet [1], fast evaporation [33], vacuum drying [34], sandwich [35], and two-layer [36] methods. Among these techniques, the dried-droplet method is one of the most frequently used for MALDI-TOF-MS analysis in the case of solution (analyte) to solution (matrix) conditions.…”
