| Host Response |
|
Mouse Response
- Host Strain: Swiss pathogen free
- Vaccination Protocol: Antigen extracts (50 μg of protein) containing 5 μg of cholera toxin were used to immunize mice orogastrically (Ferrero et al., 1995).
- Challenge Protocol: Aliquots (0.1 ml) containing 10^4 H. felis bacteria prepared from a low subculture stock suspension of H. felis were administered orogastrically to mice (Ferrero et al., 1995).
- Efficacy: Orogastric immunization of mice with recombinant H. pylori HspB proteins protected 70% of animals from a challenge dose of 104 Helicobacter felis bacteria (Ferrero et al., 1995).
