Consistent with the goals of a comprehensive carbohydrate sequencing strategy, we extend earlier reports to include the characterization of structural (constitutional) isomers. Protocols were developed around ion trap instrumentation providing sequential mass spectrometry (MSn) and supported with automation and related computational tools. These strategies have been built on the principle that for a single structure all product spectra upon sequential fragmentation are reproducible and each stage represents a rational spectrum of its precursor; i.e., all major fragments should be accounted for. Anomalous ions at any stage are clues indicating the presence of structural isomers. Gas-phase isolation and subsequent fragmentation of such ions provide an opportunity to specifically resolve selected structures for their detailed characterization. Importantly, some isomers were not detected following MS2 and required multiple (MSn>2) stages for their characterization. Derivatization remains critical to position substructures in a glycan array since product ions carry fragmentation "scars" throughout the MSn tree. Equally as important are the pathway relationships between each stage and the greater yield of fragments with the smaller number of oscillators. Applications were directed to the structural isomers in ovalbumin and IgG, where, in the latter case, several previously unreported glycans were detected. Procedures were supported with bioinformatics tools for assimilating structure from the MSn data sets.
