Advantages and Challenges of Glycan Analysis: An HPLC Interview with Kevin Pagel
At HPLC 2023, LCGC spoke with Kevin Pagel of Freie Universität in Berlin, Germany. These clips comprise one of several HPLC interviews that were conducted at the conference.
Pagel spoke with us at HPLC 2023 in Dusseldorf, Germany, supporting his latest research entitled "Glycan Analysis using Liquid Chromatography and Ion Mobility Mass Spectrometry".
Pagel is a University Professor at Freie Universität in Berlin, Germany.
In these interview clips, Pagel answers the following:
- Why is glycan analysis important? (00:16–00:43)
- What are the main challenges analysts face analysing glycans? What are the limitations of existing techniques? (00:44–01:16)
- What advantages does LC–IMS offer the analyst for glycan analysis? Can you illustrate this with a practical example? (01:17–01:53)
- What is novel about your approach? (01:54–02:26)
- What were your main challenges developing the analytical method? How did you overcome them? (02:27–03:01)
This interview was one of several conducted at HPLC 2023. You can see our latest conference coverage, including our additional video interviews conducted at HPLC, at the following link: https://www.chromatographyonline.com/conferences/hplc
