Chemical, immunochemical, chromatographic, and endotoxic properties of five chromatographically pure glycolipids were compared. The preparations were extracted by chloroform-methanol from three Escherichia coli, one Salmonella minnesota, and one S. typhimurium Re heptoseless mutant strains. The local Shwartzman skin assay, the nonspecific resistance-enhancing effect, and the Limulus assays could not distinguish among the five glycolipids, all five being active in all three assays. Significant differences could be seen when the tumor resistance-enhancing effect of the glycolipids in mice was compared with the nonspecific TA3-Ha murine mammary adenocarcinoma growing in ascites form. Even greater variation was observed in the capacity of the preparations to enhance the nonspecific resistance of mice to virulent S. typhi 0901 infections. The data show that the five glycolipids are quite dissimilar in their biological effects. Similarly, thin-layer chromatography and molecular ratio determinations showed that differences exist in the chemical structure of the glycolipids. Accordingly, we claim that not only the polysaccharide but the lipid moiety as well may vary in various gram-negative endotoxin preparations.
