Evaluation of the immunological activity of a vaccine from mutant Salmonella minnesota R 595 on a model of experimental Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection in mice

The comparative study of heated corpuscular vaccines prepared from S. minnesota mutant R 595 with defective lipopolysaccharide (LPS), chemotype Re, derived from S. minnesota strain SF 1111 with unchanged LPS, and from P. aeruginosa strain PA 103, was carried out. In contrast to the vaccine from S. minnesota strain SF 1111, the vaccine prepared from the mutant with chemotype Re induced the development of cell-mediated and humoral immunity to P. aeruginosa, and its immunogenicity was close to that of the vaccine from P. aeruginosa strain PA 103.
