The present invention relates to a sample plate for matrix-assisted laser
desorption ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry having a stable
glyco-affinity layer of a carboxyalkyl boronic acid or carboxyaryl
boronic acid and a preparation method of the sample plate. The sample
plate shows excellent selectivity for glycoprotein, and can be easily and
cost effectively prepared. The sample plate is useful for glycoprotein
analysis by MALDI mass spectrometry.
