What is a Glycolipid Microarray?

A glycolipid microarray is a high-throughput platform that allows researchers to analyze the interactions between glycolipids and glycan-binding proteins (GBPs), antibodies, and other biomolecules. This technology offers a systematic approach to studying the binding properties, activities, and specificities of glycolipids in a controlled and reproducible manner. By immobilizing a variety of glycolipids onto a solid support and probing with different molecules, glycolipid microarrays enable the identification of specific interactions between glycolipids and biological molecules. At Creative Biolabs, we specialize in providing high-quality glycolipid microarray services to help researchers explore the complexity of glycolipid interactions. Our glycolipid microarrays are designed to facilitate comprehensive studies in various research areas, including immunology, microbiology, cancer research, and drug discovery. By offering a highly reproducible and versatile platform, we aim to support your research into glycolipidomics, disease biomarkers, and therapeutic development.

What We Offer?

Our glycolipid microarrays service includes the creation of customized arrays for high-throughput screening of glycolipid interactions. Whether you are studying glycolipid structure, glycolipid function, or exploring glycolipid-based biomarkers for diseases, our service is tailored to meet your research needs. We offer both regular solutions and one-stop service to cover all your objectives.

Regular Solutions
- Comprehensive Glycolipid Profiling: We can immobilize a diverse range of glycolipids on solid supports, including those from pathogens like Borrelia burgdorferi, human tissues, and synthetic glycolipids.
- High-Throughput Screening: Our glycolipid microarrays allow for rapid, simultaneous analysis of thousands of glycolipid-binding interactions using minimal amounts of material.
- Custom Arrays: We can design microarrays with a specific set of glycolipids that are relevant to your research.
Phase-Based Services Integrated with GC Analysis
- Initial Screening Phase: Glycolipid Microarrays
  We use high-throughput glycolipid microarrays to rapidly pinpoint key interactions—like autoantibody binding—from patient serum or pathogen samples. This accelerates biomarker discovery for diseases, enabling earlier diagnosis and progression insights.
- Targeted Analysis Phase: GC/MS Profiling
  Post-screening, our GC/MS analysis delivers precise glycolipid structural validation, detailing monosaccharide chains and lipid modifications. This is vital for quality control of synthesized compounds or verifying pathogens.
- Feedback Loop: Functional Verification
  Using GC/MS structural data, we design synthesized glycolipid analogs. These are tested via microarrays to confirm functional binding to antibodies or pathogens, closing the structure-function loop for optimized therapeutic candidates.
Comprehensive Glycolipid Library for Your Research Needs
We offer an extensive selection of glycolipids for your microarray studies, continuously updating our library to ensure access to the most relevant and diverse set of glycolipids for your research. We accept a wide range of glycolipids, including but not limited to:
- Glycosphingolipids
- Gangliosides
- Glycophospholipids
- Lipopolysaccharides
- Bacterial glycolipids

If you require specific glycolipids not available in our current library, we also provide custom glycolipid synthesis services to meet your exact research needs.

Glycolipid Microarrays Workflow

Our glycolipid microarray workflow is designed to be efficient and flexible, ensuring that your research objectives are met with precision and accuracy. Here's a step-by-step overview of our process:

Consultation and Design: We begin by discussing your research goals to determine the appropriate glycolipids for your study. Based on your needs, we provide a custom glycolipid microarray design.
Array Fabrication: Using our advanced immobilization techniques, we prepare the microarrays with your chosen glycolipids. This process involves precise placement of the glycolipids onto solid supports (typically glass slides).
Incubation and Interaction: The glycolipid microarray is incubated with your samples, such as proteins, antibodies, or cells. We utilize a variety of detection methods to monitor interactions.
Data Analysis: Our service includes comprehensive data analysis to interpret binding interactions, including identifying key glycolipid-binding proteins or antibodies.
Report Generation: You will receive a detailed report of the results, which includes interaction profiles, statistical analysis, and potential glycolipid-based biomarkers.

Sample Requirements

To ensure the highest quality results, we request the following sample requirements:

Sample Type	Description	Quantity and Format
Serum or Plasma	For antibody profiling	50 µL (minimum), provided in microcentrifuge tubes or vials
Cell Lysates	For protein or membrane-bound glycolipid interactions	1 × 10⁶ cells (minimum), in appropriate media or PBS
Recombinant Proteins or Antibodies	For antigen binding studies	100 µL (minimum), with a concentration between 0.1 to 1 mg/mL
