Abstract excerpt
A panel of Salmonella typhimurium 14028s mutants, which were previously shown to be highly attenuated in the BALB/c mouse model of infection, were analyzed for their potential as live Salmonella oral-vaccine candidates. A prototypical aroA mutant was chosen as a basis of comparison. From the panel of mutants initially chosen for this study, three mutants with comparable levels of attenuation elicited higher...
