1 Background N-glycosylations affect important properties such as the specificity, efficacy, immunogenicity and stability of proteins. A portfolio of methods for glycan analysis was developed, using the murine monoclonal antibody 1RK1, an IgG1κ, to enable N-glycosylations of proteins to be analysed (Fig. 1). The methods developed were subsequently applied to the plant glycoprotein ricin.

MALDI-TOF-MS analysis of antibody-antigen complexes
Editor: Prof. Dr. Christiane Zaborosch Head of Center for Biochemistry Lecturer in Biochemistry christiane.zaborosch@zhaw.ch Introduction In the development of new drugs, it is of interest in pharmaceutical research to determine the size of antibody-antigen complexes that have formed, since it is assumed that large complexes are cleared more quickly by the body, and thus the […]
Bioanalysis (from Wikipedia)
This ist the definition from Wikipedia: Bioanalysis is a sub-discipline of analytical chemistry covering the quantitative measurement of xenobiotics (drugs and their metabolites, and biological molecules in unnatural locations or concentrations) and biotics (macromolecules, proteins, DNA, large molecule drugs, metabolites) in biological systems.
