TLDR
A water-soluble covalent polysaccharide-antigen conjugate with a molecular size between 140,000 and 4,500,000 dalton and a nominal poly-saccharides/protein ratio between 0.25 and 2, capable of producing T-cell dependent antibody response to poly-sarccharide from a number of pathogenic bacterial organisms is prepared by mixing Tcell dependent antigen with an electrophilically activated poly-Sarcide hapten which poly-charide had previously been heat sized until more than 60% attained
Abstract
A water-soluble covalent polysaccharide-antigen conjugate having a molecular size between 140,000 and 4,500,000 dalton and a nominal polysaccharide/protein ratio between 0.25 and 2, capable of producing T-cell dependent antibody response to polysaccharide from a number of pathogenic bacterial organisms is prepared by mixing T-cell dependent antigen with an electrophilically activated polysaccharide hapten which polysaccharide had previously been heat sized until more than 60% attained a molecular size between 200,000 and 2,000,000 dalton.

Oligosaccharide conjugate vaccines

TL;DR: In this paper, an improved method for producing oligosaccharide conjugate vaccines was proposed, which elicited a monospecific and homogeneous immune response to capsular polysaccharide.
Patent

Glycoproteinic conjugates having trivalent immunogenic activity

TL;DR: Glycoproteinic conjugates having trivalent immunogenic activity obtained by binding, by a covalent bond, to a protein selected among CRM 197, tetanus toxoid, and pertussis toxin, wherein said oligosaccharidic haptens are previously activated by introducing terminal esters as mentioned in this paper.
Patent

Dual carrier immunogenic construct

TL;DR: A dual carrier immunogenic construct as mentioned in this paper is composed of at least one primary carrier comprising large molecular weight molecule of greater than a 70 KD molecular weight and at least a secondary carrier comprising a T-dependent antigen conjugated to a primary carrier.

Pneumococcal polysaccharide conjugate vaccine

TL;DR: In this paper, a pneumococcal conjugate vaccine comprising partially hydrolyzed, highly purified, capsular polysaccharide (Ps) from Streptococcus pneumoniae bacteria (pneumococci, Pn) linked to an immunogenic carrier protein, is produced by a new process.

Group B streptococcus type II polysaccharide-tetanus toxoid conjugate vaccines

TL;DR: The coupling strategy which selectively modified a portion of the sialic acid residues of types II polysaccharide before coupling the polysacchide to TT preserved the epitope essential to protective immunity and enhanced the immunogenicity of the poly Saccharide.

Immunogenic polysaccharide-protein conjugates

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors modified polysaccharides to generate a terminally-located aldehyde group by controlled oxidation of vicinal hydroxyl groups, e.g. of unlinked terminal non-reducing sialic acid residues.
