Abstract
The bacterial mucopolysaccharide of a Gram-negative bacterium, Georgetown strain COC-21, includes a hexosamine component, D-quinovosamine. The bacterium has been identified and classified as Achromobacter georgiopolitanum n. sp. and a description of the organism is given. The overall deoxyribonucleic acid base composition, determined by buoyant density measurements in cesium chloride, is 41 moles %. Electron micrographs of ultrathin sections reveal a double-layered cell wall structure typical of the Gram-negative bacteria.
