| Industry | Application | Process |
|---|---|---|
| Pharmaceuticals | As a carbohydrate-based drug intermediate for synthesizing antiviral, antitumor, and immunomodulatory agents; for preparing fucosylated monoclonal antibodies to enhance ADCC activity | Chemically synthesized or enzymatically coupled to the terminus of glycan chains; in vitro glycosylation modification mediated by glycosyltransferases |
| Biological Research | As a ligand for cell surface receptors to study cell adhesion, signal transduction, and pathogen infection mechanisms; for constructing fucose-deficient cell models | Added to cell culture media; combined with gene editing and metabolic labeling techniques |
| Food & Nutrition | As a functional oligosaccharide component to modulate gut microbiota (e.g., promoting Bifidobacterium proliferation); incorporated into infant formula to mimic human milk oligosaccharide (HMO) structures containing fucose | Microencapsulated prior to addition to dairy products; HMO analogues prepared via enzymatic transglycosylation using lactose or other substrates |
| Diagnostics | As an antigenic epitope for developing immunoassays to detect pathogens such as Helicobacter pylori and rotavirus; for detecting fucosylated biomarkers in flow cytometry | Conjugated to solid-phase carriers (e.g., magnetic beads, microtiter plates); used in combination with fluorescent dyes or enzyme-labeled antibodies |
| Test Item | Common Testing Methods | Method Overview |
|---|---|---|
| Identification | Infrared Spectroscopy (IR) | Determine the infrared absorption spectrum of the sample and compare it with reference spectra to confirm functional groups and structural characteristics. |
| Proton Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (¹H NMR) | Use NMR technology to analyze chemical shifts and coupling constants of hydrogen atoms in the molecule, verifying the stereochemistry of L-fucose. | |
| Assay | High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) | Employ reversed-phase or hydrophilic interaction chromatography columns combined with refractive index detection (RID) or evaporative light scattering detection (ELSD) for quantitative analysis of the active ingredient. |
| Gas Chromatography (GC) | Derivatize fucose (e.g., trimethylsilylation), then separate via gas chromatography and quantify using a flame ionization detector (FID). | |
| Specific Optical Rotation | Polarimetry | Measure the optical rotation of the solution at a specified temperature and wavelength (typically sodium D line, 589 nm), then calculate the specific rotation to assess optical purity and configuration. |
| Loss on Drying | Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) or Constant Weight Drying Method | Dry the sample at a specified temperature (e.g., 105°C) until constant weight is achieved; measure mass loss to evaluate moisture and volatile impurity content. |
| Sulfated Ash (Residue on Ignition) | High-Temperature Incineration | Ignite the sample at high temperature (typically 600–800°C), then weigh the residual inorganic matter to indicate levels of inorganic impurities. |
| Heavy Metals | Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) or ICP-MS | Determine residual levels of heavy metal elements such as lead, arsenic, cadmium, and mercury using atomic absorption spectroscopy or inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). |
| Microbial Limits | Microbiological Culture Methods | Perform tests according to pharmacopoeial methods (e.g., Chinese Pharmacopoeia, USP) for total aerobic microbial count, total mold/yeast count, and specified microorganisms (e.g., *Escherichia coli*). |
| pH Value | pH Meter Method | Prepare an aqueous solution of defined concentration and measure its acidity or alkalinity using a calibrated pH meter to detect acidic or basic impurities. |
| Related Substances (Impurities) | HPLC-ELSD or HPLC-RID | Use high-performance liquid chromatography to separate and detect potential sugar-related impurities (e.g., glucose, galactose) and other organic impurities. |
| Water Content | Karl Fischer Titration | Utilize a highly specific titration reaction to determine water content in the sample; suitable for accurate measurement of trace moisture. |
