Method for Detecting Alpha Fetoprotein Glycoforms by High Resolution Intact Mass Analysis

Methods for identifying and determining an abundance of an alpha fetoprotein (AFP) glycoform in a biological sample includes obtaining a biological sample, separating AFP from the biological sample as an enriched AFP sample, separating intact AFP from the enriched AFP sample, subjecting the intact A...

Zusammenfassung:	Methods for identifying and determining an abundance of an alpha fetoprotein (AFP) glycoform in a biological sample includes obtaining a biological sample, separating AFP from the biological sample as an enriched AFP sample, separating intact AFP from the enriched AFP sample, subjecting the intact AFP to high resolution mass spectrometry to generate a mass spectrum, identifying at least one AFP glycoform from the mass spectrum, and determining an abundance of the at least one AFP glycoform in the biological from the mass spectrum.
