• Beschreibung: Sialyllacto-N-fucopentaose II is a synthetic oligosaccharide that has been shown to be present in human serum. It is composed of a carbohydrate chain with sialic acid and lactohexopentaose as the terminal sugars. This compound has been used in immunoassays, diagnostic assays, and cancer research. Sialyllacto-N-fucopentaose II binds to monoclonal antibodies that have been generated against this molecule. Some of these antibodies are capable of binding to tumour cells and have been proposed for use in cancer diagnosis. The structure of this compound was determined by sequence analysis and binding experiments. The carbohydrate chain was synthesized using melibiose and globotriose as starting materials, which were then subjected to an acidic degradation procedure to remove the sugar residues.
