title: [Structure and antigenicity of the major glycolipid from opportunistic bacteria Rhodococcus equi].
abstract: Some results from structural and immunological studies of the major glycolipid from Rhodococcus equi were presented. This glycolipid showed to be a glucosylmonomycolate (GMM) with an aliphatic chain C38. Its value as taxonomic and immunodiagnostic marker was discussed.
