  • Chapter
Ganglioside Structure, Function, and Biomedical Potential

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 174))

Abstract

The development of fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry1 (FAB MS) and high field and high resolution magnetic sector mass spectrometry2 have disclosed new dimensions in the analysis and sequencing of polar nonvolatile compounds of vital biological importance such as oligonucleotides3, peptides,4 and glycoconjugates5 with molecular weights up to 8000 daltons.
