[Effect of the saccharide chain length of bacterial lipopolysacchrides on the stimulation of immune system].
Three lipopolysaccharides (LPS) of different chain length were used as adjuvant. The one of shortest chain length is the most effective in enhancing antibody titer in rats against sheep red blood cells, suggesting that lipid A and KDO were responsible for the stimulatory effect of LPS.
