Development and validation of online SPE purification coupled to HILIC-fluorescence-MS analysis for the characterization of N-glycans Vrije Universiteit Brussel
N-glycans of therapeutic glycoproteins is a critical quality attribute to be addressed. We developed a sensitive method for N-glycan characterization using procainamide (ProcA) labelling and online solid phase extraction (online SPE). N-glycans were enzymatically released, then labeled with ProcA and cleaned up via the online SPE using HILIC chemistry (online HILIC SPE). Two preparation protocols were optimized: a short one (1 h 30) and a ...
