Host Response |
Mouse Response
- Host Strain: Swiss
- Vaccination Protocol: Mice were orogastrically immunized with 50 μg of recombinant HspA protein and 5 μg of cholera toxin prepared in 0.1 M sodium bicarbonate before delivery (Ferrero et al., 1995).
- Challenge Protocol: Mice were challenged with 10^4 H. felis bacteria (Ferrero et al., 1995).
- Efficacy: Orogastric immunization of mice with recombinant H. pylori HspA proteins protected 80% of animals from a challenge dose of 10^4 Helicobacter felis bacteria (Ferrero et al., 1995).
