title: [Structure and properties of the common polysaccharide antigen of Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria (review)].
abstract: The review is devoted to a surface carbohydrate antigen of the bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa which is common for the majority of the species and has a lipopolysaccharide nature. The occurrence, detection, isolation, structure, expression on the cell surface, interaction with antibodies, an antibiotic and a bacteriophage as well as the immunotherapeutic potential of the common polysaccharide antigen are discussed.
