In this minireview we summarize the photochemical approaches for developing highthroughput carbohydrate microarray technologies Newly established methods for photoimmobilizing unmodified monosaccharides oligosaccharides and polysaccharides onto photoactive surfaces and coupling of photoactive carbohydrates onto polymer surfaces are reviewedThis material is based upon work supported by or in part by the US Army Research Laboratory and the US Army Research Office under contract/grant number DA W911NF0410282 and in part by the National Science Foundation under grant numbers DMR0214263 IGERT0221589 and CHE0415516 to NJ Turro and JT Koberstein at Columbia University and supported in part by the Phil N Allen Trust and NIH grant AI064104 to D Wang at Stanford University GT Carroll acknowledges an IGERT fellowship Any opinions findings and conclusions or recommendations expressed in this material are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the views of the National Science Foundation
