Joe,
I spoke with Ake and he wasn't sure where to get these quantities, but had
three suggestions. The first was to contact Ole Hindsgaul at the University
of Alberta in Edmonton (since Biomira is also in Edmonton, this might be a
good plan). The second was a Swiss company called CarboGen, unfortunately
we only have a name and FAX number. It is Dieter Beer and the FAX is
0041628364810. The third is a company called Sussex Research Laboratories.
They are also in Canada (Ottowa) and the contact there is K. Brady Clark.
Phone number is (613) 993-4402). These guys have some type of partnership
with SIGMA-Aldrich so they must have some industrial clout. Hope this info
is useful.
Paul

Hello
This is a little different, but I am looking to make some glycopeptides and
need to find a good source of GalNAc. This would have to be in the 1-2 Kg
per year range. Any direction would be appreciated.
Thanks
