Chemical and immunochemical characterization of the lipopolysaccharides of Yersinia kristensenii serovars 0:12,25; 0:12,26; and 0:25,35

A comparative and immunochemical characterization of the lipopolysaccharides of three serovars ofY. kristensenii has been performed and the ratios of the monosaccharides have been established. The results of the immunochemical investigations confirmed the serotyping of the microorganisms.Pacific Ocean Institute of Bioorganic Chemistry, Far Eastern Branch, Academy of Sciences of the USSR, Vladivostok.
