Resource description
Project Title: Novel methods for identification of recombinant glycoprotein hormones
Researchers: M. Ueki, Y. Kishikawa, T. Ohtsuki
Institution: Japan Chemical Analysis Centre (JCAC), Japan
Year approved: 2011
Summary: Aims of our research are (a) methodology development for comprehensive differentiation of endogenous and exogenous hCG, LH and ESA by glycane profiling, (b) construction of lectin-carbohydrate interaction database that allows rapid identification of WADA prohibited glycoprotein hormones, and (c) development of sample preparation procedure to allow detection of recombinant glycoprotein hormones by normal immuno-assays currently equipped n WADA accredited laboratories.
