Direct evidence for the presence of lipopolysaccharide components in Pseudomonas ribosomal vaccine.

M M Lieberman
PMCID: PMC421146  PMID: 408275

Abstract

The presence of sugars specific to lipopolysaccharide, glucose, and rhamnose was demonstrated in a Pseudomonas ribosomal vaccine. The detection of these sugars was accomplished by radiological means after paper chromatography of the neutral fraction of acid-hydrolyzed vaccine.
