Abstract

Methods for producing glycan nitrones comprising reacting glycans with a mono-N-substituted hydroxylamine at pH 6 or greater to form glycan nitrones. Methods for producing glycan derivatives comprising reacting glycan nitrones produced by reacting glycans with a mono-N-substituted hydroxylamine at pH 6 or greater with a reducing agent to form hydroxylamine glycan derivatives and uses of the glycan nitrones and hydroxylamine glycan derivatives produced by the methods.
