ABSTRACT

A simple and rapid fluorometric assay of glycosylated albumin was developed using dansylated phenyl boronic acid (N-(5-dimethyl amino-1-naphthalene sulfonyl)-3-aminobenzene boronic acid). The emission spectrum of the reagent changes upon binding to cis-diols present on glycosylated albumin in serum, allowing quantitation of glycosylated albumin. Results from the new procedure correlated well with those from commercially prepared affinity chromatography (r = 0.85).
