Journal ArticleDOI

Immunity of cholera in man: Relative role of antibacterial versus antitoxic immunity

TL;DR: Failure to culture vibrios from intestinal fluid or stool of re-challenge volunteers suggests that the predominant immune mechanism is antibacterial rather than antitoxic.
Journal ArticleDOI

Immunity to Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli

TL;DR: These studies demonstrate that prior disease due to enterotoxigenic E. coli confers homologous immunity against subsequent challenge, and the operative mechanism apparently is not bactericidal and is not mediated by serum anti-O antibodies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cholera, non-vibrio cholera, and stomach acid.

TL;DR: Investigation of fasting and postprandial stomach acid production in convalescent Bangalee cholera patients indicates that Idiopathic tropical hypochlorhydria may be a major factor accounting for the high incidence of diarrhoea due to acid-sensitive pathogens in developing countries.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pathologic changes associated with brucellosis experimentally induced by aerosol exposure in rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta).

TL;DR: Pathologic findings in rhesus macaques after aerosol exposure to B melitensis are similar to those observed in humans with brucellosis, which may aid in the development of a vaccine against bru cellosis that can be used in humans.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bacteriologic and histologic features in mice after intranasal inoculation of Brucella melitensis.

TL;DR: Changes in the spleen and liver increased with increases in dose and with increased time following intranasal inoculation with B melitensis 16M, and surprisingly, histologic changes were not observed in the lungs of inoculated mice.
