Recently, the structure for pneumococcal polysaccharide (PS) 17F has been r
evised. Based on the former PS structure, immunogenicities of PS 17F derive
d synthetic di-, tri- and tetrasaccharide conjugates have been reported in
mice. Here, we present additional data on the immunogenicities of these con
jugates in rabbits and re-evaluate the immunogenicity results in the light
of the revised PS 17F structure. (C) 2001 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd
