摘要:
                                The positive- and negative-ion f.a.b.-mass spectra and the fragmentation of sulphated oligosaccharides derived from ovine lutropin are described.  Negative-ion f.a.b.-m.s. of methylated derivatives offers a sensitive and rapid method for screening glycans for sulphation, for defining the location of sulphated residues, and for sequencing sulphated branches.  Positive-ion non-sulphated branches in both complex and hybrid-type sulphated structures.
