Importance of anti-Plesiomonas antibody in the protection of rats against infection by Plesiomonas Shigelloides.
1996
: Rabbit anti-antibody raised against Plesiomonas shigelloides infections using standard immunological procedures. Ten (50%) of 20 rats died when only P. shigelloidess was injected while 2(10%) died [P < 0.05]; following injection of another group of 20 rats with P. shigelloides 24hours after administration of rabbit-Plesiomonas anti-antibody. In another scheme, 14(70%) of 20 rats died when p.shigelloides and colloidal carbon particles (CCP) were administered while only 4(20%) died (p<0.05) following injection of P. shigelloides and CCP 24 hours after administration of rabbit-Plesiomonas anti-antibody. No death was recorded for control rats which received only CCP. This study highlights a novel approach in the management or prevention of P. shigelloides infection in our environment.
