As a part of our glycoantigen synthetic program for diagnosis and basic analysis of yeast-related pathogenic mechanisms, a library of 1-->2 oligomannosides suitable for immunoanalysis was prepared. The use of biotin sulfone, an oxidized form of biotin, offers a convenient solution for both oligosaccharide synthesis and immobilization on microspheres and surface plasmon resonance sensors. The application of this new strategy for the analysis of anti- Candida albicans antibody response through multiple-analyte profiling technology (Luminex) and with surface plasmonic analysis using biotin tagged synthetic oligosaccharides on avidin coated surfaces was validated using monoclonal antibodies.
