Robert H. Gilman,Richard B. Hornick,William E. Woodward,Herbert L. DuPont,Merrill J. Snyder,Myron M. Levine,Joseph P. Libonati +6 more
TL;DR: A mutant of Salmonella typhi, which lacks the enzyme uridine 5'-diphosphate-glucose-4-epimerase, was evaluated in volunteers for use as a live attenuated oral typhoid vaccine and results in a safe, stable and protective oral vaccine that warrants further study in field trials.
Journal ArticleDOI
The response of man to virulent Shigella flexneri 2a.
TL;DR: In the United States, epidemic shigellosis has been a particularly important problem in confined groups such as the military, institutions for the mentally retarded, and Indian reservations, it is in such confined populations that an effective Shigella vaccine would be most beneficial.
