Haemophilus influenzae capsular polysaccharide

In the cell-wall antigen from Staphylococcus aureus M, taurine is linked as an amide (51) to a 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-galactosyluronic residue. l-Threonine and L-glutamic acid are linked as amides to D-glucuronic acid residues in the LPS from Rhodopseudomonas sphaeroides ATCC 17023 and in the capsular polysaccharide from Klebsiella K82, respectively. In the capsular polysaccharide from E. coli K54, L-serine and L-threonine, in the ratio 1 9, are linked to the carboxyl group of a D-glucuronic acid residue. In the capsular polysaccharide from Haemophilus influenzae type d,... [Pg.312]

In different polysaccharides of the teichoic acid type, monosaccharides or oligosaccharides are connected by phosphoric diester linkages. Two examples are the capsular antigens from Neisseria meningitides type A (56) and Haemophilus influenzae type c (57), respectively. Glycerol phosphate... [Pg.315]

A further type of vaccine included in the subunit category is the capsular polysaccharide vaccines, for example, those against Haemophilus influenzae and meningococcal meningitis. In this case an extract of the polysaccharide outer capsule of the bacterium is used as a vaccine and is sometimes conjugated to protein to... [Pg.425]

Despite their popularity, aluminium-based adjuvants suffer from several drawbacks. They tend to effectively stimulate only the humoral arm of the immune response. They cannot be frozen or lyophylized, as either process promotes destruction of their gel-based structure. In addition, aluminium-based products display poor or no adjuvanticity when combined with some antigens (e.g. typhoid or Haemophilus influenzae type b capsular polysaccharides). [Pg.455]

Fully methylated and fully acetylated disaccharides isolated from the capsular polysaccharide of Escherichia coli KlOO and Haemophilus influenzae type b have been identified by m.s. as 2-0- and 1-O-D-ribofuranosyl ribitol, respectively. " The capsular antigen of H. influenzae type c has been purified by ion-exchange chromatography. Structural investigations have identified the disaccharide (8) as the repeating unit of the polysaccharide. [Pg.290]
