Recently, the structure for pneumococcal polysaccharide (PS) 17F has been revised. Based on the former PS structure, immunogenicities of PS 17F derived synthetic di-, tri- and tetrasaccharide conjugates have been reported in mice. Here, we present additional data on the immunogenicities of these conjugates in rabbits and re-evaluate the immunogenicity results in the light of the revised PS 17F structure
