    Abstract

    We developed a novel method for rapid screening of carbohydrate-protein interactions using poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) channels statically coated with hydrophobically modified hydroxyethylcellulose (HM-HEC). We found that a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) of HM-HEC on a PMMA surface intact by water allows rapid and reproducible separations of glycan samples using a 20 mM phosphate without HM-HEC. The underlying mechanism for dynamic and static coatings on the PMMA surface is discussed. Simultaneous analysis of the molecular interaction between a complex mixture of carbohydrates from α1-acid glycoprotein and proteins has been successfully achieved in PMMA channels statically coated with a SAM of HM-HEC.
