Abstract	Glycomics which is the study of saccharides and genes responsible for their formation requires the continuous development of rapid and sensitive methods for the identification of glycan structures. It involves glycoanalysis which relies upon the development of methods for determining the structure and interactions of carbohydrates. For the application of functional glycomics to microbial virulence, carbohydrates and their associated metabolic and carbohydrate processing enzymes and respective genes can be identified and exploited as targets for drug discovery, glyco-engineering, vaccine design, and detection and diagnosis of diseases. Glycomics also encompasses the detailed understanding of carbohydrate-protein interactions and this knowledge can be applied to research efforts focused toward the development of vaccines and immunological therapies to alleviate infectious diseases.

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 06 July 2013.

All research outputs

#20,196,270

of 22,714,025 outputs

Outputs from Methods in molecular biology

#9,852

of 13,079 outputs

Outputs of similar age

#156,722

of 163,661 outputs

Outputs of similar age from Methods in molecular biology

#108

of 120 outputs

Altmetric has tracked 22,714,025 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.

So far Altmetric has tracked 13,079 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.3. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.

Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 163,661 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.

We're also able to compare this research output to 120 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
