Abstract

A pure culture of Pantoea agglomerans having all of the characteristics of FERM BP-3511 is disclosed. The characteristics include morphology, growth, physiological, carbon utilization sources and various enzymatic tests, as well as the required production of a lipopolysaccharide and all of these characteristics have been identified for the culture of P. agglomerans. In addition the lipopolysaccharide has a dominant molecular weight of 6,500.+-.2,500 as determined by SDS-PAGE method, 2.+-.phosphorus, 5.+-.hexosamines and 2.+-.1 2-keto-3-deoxyoctonate per molecular weight of 5,000. The specific enzymatic tests involve such enzymes as lysin decarboxylase, arginine dihydroxylase, phenylalanine deaminase and ornithine decarboxylase. Further, a test for utilization of malonate by the culture is disclosed.
