The derivatives of 2-acylamino-6-O-(2-aminoethyl) phosphono-3-deoxy-D-glucose acylated with acetic or D,L-3-hydroxytetradecanoic acid were obtained, and their 31P-and 13C-NMR spectra investigated. These haptens were bound with a polysaccharide (Ficoll) or proteins (albumins, bovine gamma-globulin). The protein conjugates were immunogenic in rabbits, specific antibodies against the hapten being revealed by two immunochemical methods. As shown by the enzyme-linked immunoadsorbent assay, the specific rabbit antiserum reacted with lipid A from Yersinia pseudotuberculosis.
