The invention is directed to multivalent pneumococcal glycoconjugate compositions containing a newly emerging serotype of S. pneumonia, polysaccharide 24F, and their manufacture and use. The pneumococcal serotype 24F contains a polysaccharide repeating unit structure. The multivalent immunogenic composition comprises at least 25 S. pneumonia capsular polysaccharides selected from the serotypes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6B, 6C, 7F, 8, 9N, 9V, 10A, 11A, 12F, 14, 15A, 15B, 15C, 16F, 17F, 18C, 19A, 19F, 20, 22F, 23B, 23F, 24F, 33F and 35B of S. pneumoniae preferably conjugated to carrier protein either directly or through a linker and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and/or adjuvant. The disclosure provides the capsular polysaccharide structure of serotype 24F to understand the polysaccharide before conjugation with carrier protein.
