“…By this method, regularly sulfated CS/DS chains, up to hexamers, were identified and thoroughly characterized but no oversulfated sequences were discovered. Due to the technical advancements in MS instrumentation, in particular of the systems able to rapidly perform multistage MS (MS n ) by either collision-induced dissociation (CID) [11,18,21,25,26,37] or electrondetachment dissociation (EDD) [38,39] and the development of consistent sequencing protocols, nowadays, the determination of CS/DS structure in terms of chain length, epimerization, sulfation global content, sulfation pattern and site(s) is also feasible.…”
