When HA samples contain only several disaccharide repeating units (from 10- to 12-mers), PAGE is not appropriate. An alternative gel electrophoretic procedure known as Fluorophore-Assisted Carbohydrate Electrophoresis (FACE) is more suited for these cases. In FACE technique, the sample is derivatized with a fluorescent group at the reducing end-group prior to electrophoresis. The FACE electrophoretic method was also described in detail by Cowman and Mendichi [270].
