HELP : Have to locate carbohydrates DP8 - DP15 ... where??

[h.piatkowski@comalc.com]

Hi folks..

Thanks for taking the time to read this.. I hope someone here can help me out...

I'm working on developing a method for polysaccharide quantification using the Alltech Prevail Carbohydrate ES column. I need to take a look at how well my enzymes are converting starch in my process and this seems like a perfect way to do this.. the problem is.. I can't find the standards anywhere.. I need to get DP8 (maltooctaose) to DP 15 (maltopentadecaose) to make my standards..

Anyone know of a source of these?? ANYONE???

Thanks for all your help..

Anyway, Sigma doesn't have them?
