The present invention relates to synthesis of novel higher oligomers and process of preparing the same. In particular the present invention relates to the chemical synthesis of oligomers of Neisseria meningitidis serogroup X (‘hereinafter Men-X), more particularly tetramer. The present invention provides Men-X capsular oligomers obtained from synthetic pathway using purified saccharides of specific chain length and provides said novel oligomers as candidates for the development of conjugate vaccine against bacterial meningitis caused due to Men-X infections.
本发明涉及新型高级低聚物的合成及其制备工艺。特别是本发明涉及脑膜炎奈瑟菌血清群 X(以下简称 Men-X)的低聚物,尤其是四聚体的
化学合成。本发明提供了利用特定链长的纯化糖通过合成途径获得的 Men-X 荚膜低聚物,并提供了上述新型低聚物作为候选物,用于开发预防由 Men-X 感染引起的细菌性脑膜炎的结合疫苗。
