title: [Antigenic characteristics and various biological properties of glycoprotein from Neisseria meningitidis of serological group A].
abstract: It was shown that the antigen determining the group specificity of meningococcus belonging to serological group A was of mixed polysaccharide-protein nature. Carbohydrate component is responsible for the interaction with the group-specific antibodies in this antigen. Glycoprotein can be isolated both from the cells and from the culture fluid where it passes during the N. meningitidis cultivation in fluid nutrient medium. The described antigen possesses no properties of endotoxin.
