Abstract excerpt
Common structural motifs of Haemophilus influenzae lipopolysaccharide (LPS) are globotetraose [beta-d-GalpNAc-(1-->3)-alpha-d-Galp-(1-->4)-beta-d-Galp-(1-->4)-beta-d-Glcp] and its truncated versions globoside [alpha-d-Galp-(1-->4)-beta-d-Galp-(1-->4)-beta-d-Glcp] and lactose [beta-d-Galp-(1-->4)-...
