  • Title: Chemotypes of Veillonella lipopolysaccharides.
    Author: Hofstad T.
    Journal: Acta Pathol Microbiol Scand B; 1978 Feb; 86(1):47-50. PubMed ID: 665243.
    Abstract:
    Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) were isolated by phenol-water extraction from 34 strains of Veillonella, and examined by paper chromatography and colorimetric methods for the presence of neutral sugars, amino sugars and 2-keto-3-deoxy-octonate (KDO). Several preparations were also examined for neutral sugars by gas liquid chromatography. The LPS had in common glucosamine, galactosamine, L-glycero-D-manno-heptose glucose and KDO. Most LPS contained galactose, and a few rhamnose. D-glycero-D-manno-heptose was found in LPS from one of the strains. Based on the sugar composition of the LPS, the Veillonella strains could be classified into four chemotypes.
