Meanings of capsular polysaccharides in anglès

Bacterial capsular polysaccharides are virulence factors and are considered T cell-independent antigens.

Herein, we assessed whether this same mechanism applies to conjugates prepared from other capsular polysaccharides.

The fungus is endowed with several virulence factors, including capsular polysaccharides that play a key role in virulence.

Naturally acquired immunity to pneumococcal capsular polysaccharides develops during childhood and is robust in young adults but deteriorates with advanced age.

Although most human S. aureus isolates produce capsular polysaccharides (CPs), few reports have described the prevalence of capsules on bovine isolates.

Capsular polysaccharides are shed into tissue where they produce many deleterious effects.
