title: The structural repeating-unit of the capsular polysaccharide from Klebsiella serotype K48.
abstract: Investigation of the structure of the capsular polysaccharide from Klebsiella K48, using methylation analysis, periodate oxidation, Smith degradation, and 1H- and 13C-n.m.r. spectroscopy, indicated the repeating unit to be the pentasaccharide (formula; see text)
