Human serum N-glycome profiling via the newly developed asparagine immobilized cellulose/polymer nanohybrid.

Human serum N-linked glycans expression levels change during the disease progression. The low abundance, structural diversity, and coexisting matrices hinder their detection in mass spectrometry analysis. Considering the hydrophilic nature of N-glycans, cellulose/polymer (1,2-Epoxy-5-hexene) nanohybrid is fabricated with oxirane groups functionalized of asparagine to develop solid phase extraction based hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography sorbent (cellulose/1,2-Epoxy-5-hexene/asparagine).
