o determine the relative amounts of
LPS carbohydrates present in a given strain. The assay can be done on one set of samples and then scanned at the various wavelengths for reasonable data on the 3 types of sugars.

Protocol presents a method that allows rapid determination of the monosaccharide composition of glycans, glycoproteins, and proteoglycans that contain (or are suspected to contain) phosphorylated sugars. (For samples that do not contain phosphorylated sugars see Monosaccharide Analysis by Methanolysis.) - [Read Monosaccharide Analysis of Phosphorylated Sugars by Methanolysis and Diazomethane Methylation]
