Synthetic Shigella Vaccines: A Carbohydrate–Protein Conjugate with Totally Synthetic Hexadecasaccharide Haptens
Year: 1998
Type: article
Abstract: Advances in antibacterial glycoconjugate vaccines depend on the availability of defined fragments of the bacterial cell-surface polysaccharides. Oligosaccharide portions of the O-specific polysaccharide of the human pathogen Shigella dysenteriae type 1, have been assembled and attached to a human serum albumin (HSA; see below) to give semisynthetic vaccines that provide new directions against enteric diseases.
