Abstract
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.
