Abstract:
Heat-stable hemolysin produced by the cellophane-agar plate method consisted of two major acidic glycolipids. One was composed of 2 mol of rhamnose and 2 mol of beta-hydroxydecanoic acid, and the other was composed of 1 mol of rhamnose and 2 mol of beta-hydroxydecanoic acid. The hemolysis-producing moiety of the hemolysin was shown to be the dimer of beta-hydroxydecanoic acid contained in the glycolipid molecule.
