title: Presence of 3-O-methyl-l-xylose in the lipopolysaccharide of Pseudomonas maltophilia N.C.T.C. 10257.
abstract: 3-O-Methyl-L-xylose was isolated from whole cells of Pseudomonas maltophilia N.C.T.C. 10257. The sugar is a component of lipopolysaccharide from which a polysaccharide also containing L-rhamnose and L-xylose was released by mild acid hydrolysis. 3-O-Methyl-L-xylose was absent from five other strains of Ps. maltophilia and one strain of Pseudomonas geniculata.
