Growth Rate of Salmonellae in Mice
The virulence plasmids of Salmonella typhimurium and other invasive Salmonella serovars have long been associated with the ability of these bacteria to cause systemic infection beyond the intestines in orally inoculated animals. Genetic analysis of virulence genes on the high-molecular-weight plasmids has revealed that no more than five genes spanning a 6.2-kb region are sufficient to replace t...
متن کاملSalmonellosis in orally infected specific pathogen-free C57B1 mice.
Specific pathogen-free C57B1 mice are 100 to 1,000 times as sensitive as CD-1 mice to intravenous or oral challenge by Salmonella enteritidis or S. gallinarum. Resistance to infection by S. pullorum was unaffected. Growth of Listeria monocytogenes and Mycobacterium bovis (BCG) in intravenously infected C57B1 mice was similar to that seen in CD-1 mice. Quantitative counts of viable S. enteritidi...
متن کاملOlfactory epithelium changes in germfree mice
Intestinal epithelium development is dramatically impaired in germfree rodents, but the consequences of the absence of microbiota have been overlooked in other epithelia. In the present study, we present the first description of the bacterial communities associated with the olfactory epithelium and explored differences in olfactory epithelium characteristics between germfree and conventional, s...
متن کاملInterferon-producing capacity of germfree mice.
The general capacity of germfree mouse spleen cells to produce interferon in vitro in response to various stimuli was investigated. The interferon response of germfree mouse spleen cells in vitro, when compared with that of the conventionals, appears to be lower to some inducers. Interferon production in vitro stimulated by hemagglutinating virus of Japan (HVJ) or BHK-HVJ cells (BHK cells persi...
متن کاملAssociation of Germfree Mice with Bacteria Isolated from Normal Mice
Germfree mice were given food contaminated with pure cultures of various bacterial species isolated from ordinary healthy mice. The cultures were given singly, or in association, or consecutively at weekly intervals. Whatever the technique of administration, the lactobacilli and anaerobic streptococci immediately established themselves throughout the gastrointestinal tract, and became closely a...
