In the present work we have explored conditions for using a pulsed amperometric detector for on-line analysis of oligosaccharides eluted from a high-performance liquid affinity chromatography column. A monoclonal antibody that specifically binds a glucose-containing oligosaccharide is coupled to a

Infantile Pompe disease resulting from a deficiency of lysosomal acid α-glucosidase (GAA) requires enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) with recombinant human GAA (rhGAA). Cross-reactive immunologic material negative (CRIM-negative) Pompe patients develop high-titer antibody to the rhGAA and do poorly. We describe
