COMPETITION-BASED DETECTION ASSAYS

摘要

Disclosed herein are methods and kits which are useful for detecting presence of an enzyme and the relative amount of glycan associated with the enzyme in a test sample based upon the enzyme's ability to competitively inhibit the binding of a ligand in such test sample. The present invention provides the ability to evaluate cell culture conditions and optimize the desired glycoform content of recombinantly prepared enzymes.
