SialoCapper-ID Kit

SialoCapper™-ID Kit reliably stabilizes sialic acid residues, enabling linkage isomer discrimination.
Our technology prevents the decomposition of sialic acid residues and ionization suppression. Furthermore, makes it possible to discriminate the linkage isomers of sialic acids by mass spectrometry.


Various types of mass spectrometers can be used for measuring glycans derivatized with the SialoCapper-ID Kit
The SALSA method involved in the SialoCapper-ID Kit was developed by Shimadzu corporation and improved in cooperation with Prof. Jun-Ichi Furukawa and Dr. Hisatoshi Hanamatsu at Hokkaido University.

Life Science Biomarker Industry Page has been updated
Biomarkers are derived from living organisms and found in tissues, blood, and other bodily fluids. Biomarkers are indicators of biological changes in an organism and are used to diagnose disease, in prognosis, and to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pharmaceuticals. Biomarkers can be nucleic acids, proteins, peptides, lipids, and sugars, and are identified using various “omics” techniques.
