Abstract

The capsular polysaccharide of Haemophilus (Actinobacillus) pleuropneumoniae serotype 5 (ATCC 33377) was found to be a linear type polysaccharide of a repeating disaccharide unit composed of 2‐acetamido‐2‐deoxy‐d‐glucose and 3‐deoxy‐d‐manno‐2‐octulosonic acid (dOclA). By composition analysis, methylation, partial hydrolysis and 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance studies, it was concluded that the capsular polysaccharide is a high‐molecular‐mass unbranched polymer having the structure: (Formula Presented.)
