novatec analytical
Founded in
1996, located close to Basel, novatec analytical is
a small but dedicated Swiss distributor company specialized
in carbohydrate analysis.
Many protein
pharmaceuticals
being developed for human use
are glycoproteins, with oligosaccharides covalently attached to
the polypeptide side chains. The proportion of a glycoprotein
which is oligosaccharide varies. Increasing evidence suggests
that oligosaccharides can play an important role in
glyco-protein
function. In evaluating the therapeutic effect and safety of a
glyco-protein pharmaceutical, the intrinsic properties of the
oligo-saccharides as well as their modulating effect on the
protein
must be considered and controlled.
novatec
analytical is
dedicated to supply the biopharma commu-
nity with the tools
required for the analysis of recombinant
biotherapeutics.
