Carbohydrate-binding antibodies are used extensively for basic research and have clinical applications as therapeutic agents and diagnostics. We have developed a carbohydrate microarray or “glycan array” containing hundreds of carbohydrate antigens immobilized on a glass microscope slide. To enhance diversity, the array contains variations in both carbohydrate structure and presentation. The array provides a high-throughput tool for evaluating antibody-antigen interactions.
