A derivatization method, adapted from that of Angel et al. (ref. 10), for sequencing sugar residues in partially degraded poly- and oligo-saccharides using positive-ion f.a.b.-m.s. is described. Derivative selection provides sequence information by directing fragmentation exclusively to both sides of
