The minimum information required for a glycomics experiment (MIRAGE): reporting guidelines for capillary electrophoresis

Glycobiology, vol. 32, pp. 580–587

Abstract

The Minimum Information Required for a Glycomics Experiment (MIRAGE) is an initiative to standardize the reporting of glycoanalytical methods and to assess their reproducibility. To date, the MIRAGE Commission has published several reporting guidelines that describe what information should be provided for sample preparation methods, mass spectrometry methods, liquid chromatography analysis, exoglycosidase digestions, glycan microarray methods, and nuclear magnetic resonance methods. Here, we present the first version of reporting guidelines for glyco(proteo)mics analysis by capillary electrophoresis (CE) for standardized and high-quality reporting of experimental conditions in the scientific literature. The guidelines cover all aspects of a glyco(proteo)mics CE experiment including sample preparation, CE operation mode (CZE, CGE, CEC, MEKC, cIEF, cITP), instrument configuration, capillary separation conditions, detection, data analysis, and experimental descriptors. These guidelines are linked to other MIRAGE guidelines and are freely available through the project website https://www.beilstein-institut.de/en/projects/mirage/guidelines/#ce_analysis (doi:10.3762/mirage.7).
