Immunochemical Analysis of the Teichoic Acid from Staphylococcus Hyicus

Abstract
The wall teichoic acid of S. hyicus was isolated and characterized. The teichoic acid is a glycerol phosphate polymer with glycosidically linked N-acetylglucosamine. Interaction with concanavalin A and susceptibility to .alpha.- but not to .beta.-N-acetylglucosaminidase showed that the sugar is in the .alpha.-configuration.
