Advantages and Challenges of Glycan Analysis: An HPLC Interview with Kevin Pagel

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:

1. Why is glycan analysis important? (00:16–00:43)
2. What are the main challenges analysts face analysing glycans? What are the limitations of existing techniques? (00:44–01:16)
3. What advantages does LC–IMS offer the analyst for glycan analysis? Can you illustrate this with a practical example? (01:17–01:53)
4. What is novel about your approach? (01:54–02:26)
5. What were your main challenges developing the analytical method? How did you overcome them? (02:27–03:01)
