5.GALACTOSE-ALPHA-1, 3-GALACTOSE-CONTAINING N-GLYCANS IN GLYCOPROTEIN PRODUCTS DERIVED FROM CHO CELLS

Abstract:
The present invention provides methods for evaluating a Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cell population by measuring glycans containing terminal galactose-alpha-1-3-galactose residues produced by said cells, wherein the CHO cells have not been genetically engineered to express an alpha-galactosyl transferase coding sequence.

6.Methods of evaluating mixtures of polysaccharides 2012-01-24

Abstract:
Methods for analyzing mixtures of polysaccharides, for example heparin or a LMWH, using reduce end labeling are described. In general, the mixture of polysaccharides includes polysaccharides having a desired structural moiety. In some instances, one or more polysaccharides in the mixture are chemically modified prior to analysis.
