What Does FACE Stand For?
FACE stands for Fluorophore Assisted Carbohydrate Electrophoresis
FACE, or Fluorophore Assisted Carbohydrate Electrophoresis, is a specialized technique used in biochemical analysis to separate and identify carbohydrates based on their structural properties. This method employs fluorescently labeled carbohydrates, allowing for enhanced sensitivity and resolution during electrophoresis. FACE facilitates the detailed study of glycan structures and is instrumental in areas such as glycomics, biomarker discovery, and the development of carbohydrate-based therapeutics.
