Lipopolysacharides from anaerobic gram-negative rods.
The chemical composition and antigenic specificity of the cell wall lipopolysaccharides of the two main groups of Bacteroidaceae, Fusobacterium and Bacteroides species, are reviewed. Cell wall lipopolysaccharides from Fusobacterium species contain 2-keto-3-deoxy-octonate and heptose, but lipopolysaccharides isolated from Bacteroides species do not.
