bifunctional polyethyleneglycol (PEG) tags, extended enzymatically with the help of recombinant glycosyltransferases and finally purified by ultrafiltration. When printed directly onto activated glass slides, these glycoPEG tags afforded arrays with exceptionally high sensitivity, low background and excellent spot morphology. Likewise, the conjugation of glycoPEG tags to latex nanoparticles yielded multivalent

Human blood group related glycan antigens are fucosylated (neo-)lactoseries oligosaccharides that play crucial roles in pathogenic processes. Lewis type-II-chain antigens mark the surface of cancer cells, but are also mediators of bacterial infections. To investigate the biological roles of Lewis type glycans a host of synthetic approaches has been developed. Here, we illustrate how automated glycan
