Abstract
The use of glycan microarrays to study carbohydrate interactions of bacterial cells is of great interest owing to the key roles these interactions play in bacterial colonization and infection of a host. In this chapter, the methods to fluorescently stain Gram-positive or Gram-negative bacteria and profiling them for glycan interactions using glycan microarrays are described in detail. The application of the Student's t-test to glycan microarray data using an example data set comparing glycan microarray binding of an Acinetobacter baumannii wild type and mutant strain is also described in step-by-step detail.
