General description

Maltoheptaose is a glucose heptamer.

Application

A partial hydrolysis of maltoheptaose has been used to prepare a dextran ladder in a study that assessed cationic labeling of oligosaccharides. The sensitivity of O-2-[aminoethyl]fluorescein was evaluated using maltoheptaose in a study that investigated the development of a novel fluorescent tag for the electrophoretic separation of oligosaccharides.

This study describes the development of a novel fluorescent tag, O-2-[aminoethyl]fluorescein, for the separation of sugars by capillary electrophoresis with fluorescence detection using an argon ion laser. The tag was synthesised using three consecutive steps namely: esterification, alkylation and hydrolysis
