| Abstract | For study of the role of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) character in colonization of the mouse large intestine, use was made of S. typhimurium strain SL5316, which is streptomycin resistant and smooth (wild-type LPS) but nonvirulent because it is Aro- (aromatic dependent). Several rough variants of different LPS chemotype derived from strain SL5316 comprised: an rfb deletion transductant making type Ra (complete core) LPS; an rfaJ mutant making incomplete core of type Rb2; and an rfa-990 mutant making LPS core less complete than chemotype Rb2. We tested these strains for colon-colonizing ability by feeding them to male CD-1 mice receiving streptomycin sulfate (5 g/liter) in their drinking water. Each strain, if fed alone, was found in the feces throughout the 15 days of the experiment at about 10(8) CFU/g for the smooth strain or 10(7) CFU/g for each of its rough derivatives. However, when mice were fed equal numbers of two strains (with differentiating antibiotic resistance characters), the strain with the more complete LPS was found in the feces in great excess, 1000- to 100,000-fold, according to the pair. Thus, when strains were placed in direct competition with one another, their relevant colon-colonizing abilities were found to be wild type greater than rfb much greater than rfaJ greater than rfa-990, showing that the ability of a Salmonella strain to colonize the mouse large intestine decreases as its LPS structure becomes more defective. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
