This video demonstrates printed glycan array technology for analyzing circulating anti-glycan antibodies in mouse serum. The antibodies in the serum interact with specific glycans on the chip, which is confirmed by immunostaining followed by fluorescence scanning.

Protocol

All procedures involving sample collection have been performed in accordance with the institute's IRB guidelines. 1. Glycochips Production Microarray preparation Print the glycans (50 mM) and polysaccharides (10 µg/mL) in 300 mM phosphate-buffered saline (PBS, pH 8.5) at 6 replicates onto N-hydroxysuccinimide-derivatized glass slides, using non-contact robotic arrayer (drop volume ~900 pL). Each slide contains 4 different block…

Representative Results

Figure 1: Schematic representation (not at scale) of the glycan array configuration, printing, and analysis. (A) Printed microchips are developed with a library of 419 different glycan structures, followed by the detection with an appropriate fluorescently labeled secondary antibody. Each slide contains 4 different blocks of sub-arrays (in colors), repeated 6 times. Every si…
