Abstract excerpt

The detection of antibodies specific to meningococcal lipo-oligosaccharides (LOSs; outer-core-->inner-core-->lipid A) in sera of patients convalescent from meningococcal infection suggests the potential use of LOS as a vaccine to combat pathogenic Neisseria spp. Removal of the outer-core region,...
