AI Article Synopsis

  • Researchers analyzed the core oligosaccharide of the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from Burkholderia cepacia GIFU 645(T).
  • After performing mild acid hydrolysis on the LPS, they successfully isolated a heptasaccharide.
  • The heptasaccharide was characterized using various methods including chemical analyses, gas-liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (GLC-MS), fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry (FABMS), and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy.

Article Abstract

The core oligosaccharide in the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of Burkholderia cepacia GIFU 645(T) was investigated. After mild acid hydrolysis of the LPS, a heptasaccharide was isolated and identified by chemical analyses, GLC-MS, FABMS, and NMR spectroscopy as follows: [carbohydrate structure: see text] where L-alpha-D-Hep stands for L-glycero-alpha-D-manno-heptose, Ko for D-glycero-D-talo-oct-2-ulosonic acid, and Kdo for 3-deoxy-D-manno-oct-2-ulosonic acid.
