Analyzing Carbohydrates on Therapeutic Glycoproteins
Spectroscopy E-Books
A very important component of the characterization of therapeutic proteins is the analysis of the carbohydrate structures that are attached to them. Those carbohydrates play an important role in ensuring the safety and efficacy of these drugs, and are an important consideration when comparing a candidate biosimilar drug to its reference product. For advice on this topic,
