Host Response

Mouse Response

  • Host Strain: BALB/c
  • Vaccination Protocol: Mice were immunised on day 0 by injecting 40 μg DnaJ/mouse emulsified in Freund's complete adjuvant (100 μl) i.p. Subsequent booster injections were given by injecting 30 μg DnaJ/mouse emulsified in Freund's incomplete adjuvant i.p. on 7th and 28th days. The control mice received adjuvant alone (Sagi et al., 2006).
  • Challenge Protocol: After 15 days of last immunisation, i.e. 43rd day the mice were challenged with 10 MLD (1 × 10^5 cells) of S. Typhimurium i.p. The animals were observed daily for 30 days for morbidity and mortality (Sagi et al., 2006).
  • Efficacy: Immunisation of mice with DnaJ derived from Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Typhi str. CT18 was found to provide 70% protection against lethal challenge by S. typhimurium indicating the possible use of DnaJ as vaccine candidate against typhoid (Sagi et al., 2006).
