Tampa, Fla., Aug. 3 - Proteome Systems Ltd. and Agilent Technologies, Inc. announced the expansion of their cooperative marketing agreement to develop new solutions for the discovery of diagnostic markers and drug targets by glycomics analysis.
Glycomics is the study of the structure and functions of sugar. Many diseases, such as cancer, arthritis and influenza, cause changes to the sugars that are attached to proteins.
The companies said these changes in sugars can serve as powerful diagnostic biomarkers of the diseases.
