Abstract excerpt

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a Gram-negative opportunistic pathogen that infects immunocompromised patients and trauma victims and causes fatal lung infections in people with cystic fibrosis. This microorganism produces a number of virulence factors, one of which is lipopolysaccharide (LPS), which has been shown to mediate many biological effects including resistance to serum killing and phagocytosis. These...
