Focusing on the chemical synthesis and antigenic activity of mycobacterial glycolipidic epitopes, this book explores their potential in understanding the mechanisms of mycobacterial pathogenicity. By examining Mycobacterium tuberculosis, M. leprae, and M. ulcerans, it addresses the significant public health challenges posed by these infections. The synthesized epitopes aim to aid biologists in developing new vaccines, ultimately contributing to the fight against diseases like Tuberculosis, Leprosy, and Buruli Ulcer, which lead to severe health and economic impacts.
