The chemical and serological characteristics of lipopolysaccharides (LPS) isolated from Vibrio bio-serogroup 1875 were compared with those of O1 Vibrio cholerae LPS. Vibrio bio-serogroup 1875 LPS contained all the component sugars which were found in O1 V. cholerae LPS, i.e. glucose, L-glycero-D-manno-heptose, fructose, glucosamine, perosamine and quinovosamine, though the amount of perosamine, a characteristic component of O1 V. cholerae LPS, was very low compared with that of O1 V. cholerae LPS. Their LPS additionally contained mannose and two unidentified neutral sugars which are not regular constituents of O1 V. cholerae LPS. Definite serological cross-reactivity in the passive haemolysis test between LPS from Vibrio bio-serogroup 1875 and LPS from O1 V. cholerae was demonstrated.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008070 Lipopolysaccharides Lipid-containing polysaccharides which are endotoxins and important group-specific antigens. They are often derived from the cell wall of gram-negative bacteria and induce immunoglobulin secretion. The lipopolysaccharide molecule consists of three parts: LIPID A, core polysaccharide, and O-specific chains (O ANTIGENS). When derived from Escherichia coli, lipopolysaccharides serve as polyclonal B-cell mitogens commonly used in laboratory immunology. (From Dorland, 28th ed) Lipopolysaccharide,Lipoglycans
