In this chapter we summarize current chemical and immunochemical methods to detect modified Sia species, with a special focus on O-acetylated Neu5Ac, Neu5Gc, Kdn, O-sulfated Sia, as well as diSia, oligoSia, and polySia. Because other chapters in this volume specifically focus on O-acetylated Neu5Ac [7] , Neu5Gc [8] , and polySia [9] , we restrict ourselves in this chapter to a brief introduction of the different Sia species. To observe and quantify the internal sialic acids of α2!8-linked di-, oligo-, and polySia-containing glycoconjugates, sensitive chemical methods were developed with highly sensitive fluorescent labeling reagents (DMB) as described above [69] . ./cache/cord-325743-5ujiscdt.txt ./txt/cord-325743-5ujiscdt.txt
