An alpha-D-glucoside that is the 5-aminopentyl glycoside of a branched tetrasaccharide consisting of beta-D-glucosyl, beta-D-mannosyl and beta-D-glucosyl residues linked sequentially (1->4), to the mannosyl residue of which has also linked (1->3) to it an alpha-D-glucuronosyl residue. The 5-aminopentyl group at the reducing end is a spacer to enable further conjugation to a carrier protein for immunological studies.
