text: Lectin and antibody arrays provide high-throughput screening of many samples containing glycans. This method uses either naturally occurring lectins or artificial monoclonal antibodies, where both are immobilized on a certain chip and incubated with a fluorescent glycoprotein sample.
  Glycan arrays, like that offered by the Consortium for Functional Glycomics and [http://www.zbiotech.com/ Z Biotech LLC], contain carbohydrate compounds that can be screened with lectins or antibodies to define carbohydrate specificity and identify ligands.
