Identification of D-mannosamine and quinovosamine in Salmonella and related bacteria.
Lipopolysaccharides of several strains of Salmonella, Arizona, and Proteus vulgaris, have been found to contain two unusual amino sugars not previously reported. These amino sugars were identified as d-mannosamine and quinovosamine (2-amino-2,6-dideoxy glucose).
