The O-specific polysaccharide chain of the Pseudomonas aurantiaca IMV 31 lipopolysaccharide contains N-acetyl-L-fucosamine (FucNAc) and di-N-acetyl-D-bacillosamine (2,4-diacetamido-2,4,6-trideoxyglucose, Bac(NAc)2) in the ratio 2:1. On the basis of methylation, solvolysis with anhydrous hydrogen fluoride, and computer-assisted analysis of 13C-NMR spectrum, it was concluded that the trisaccharide repeating unit of the polysaccharide possesses the following structure: structure: →3)-β-D-Bac(NAc)2-(1→3)-α-L-FucNAc-(1→3)-α-L-FucNAc-(1→.
