| Abstract | Mice immunized with a killed vaccine of phase I Bordetella bronchiseptica were challenged with various numbers of virulent B. bronchiseptica by intraperitoneal, intracerebral, or intranasal routes. The course of infection was compared among these routes, and the protective effect of vaccination was quantitatively analyzed. In ddN mice infected intraperitoneally with 1.8 X 10(8) cells (ca. 80 times the 50% lethal dose [LD50]) the organisms rapidly increased in the intraperitoneal fluid, spleen, and liver within few days and caused splenic atrophy, septicemia, and death. However, immunizations with 5 X 10(9) cells gave the mice a high agglutinin titer and suppressed the increase in the number of organisms. With four immunizations, the lungs and livers were clear within 3 days, and with one or two immunizations, they were clear within 7 days. These immunizations effectively protected the mice from death but did not protect them from splenic atrophy. In the intracerebral infection with 1.4 X 10(6) cells (ca. 1.2 X 10(5) LD50), the number of organisms rapidly increased in the brain and caused encephalitis, splenic atrophy, and death. However, four or five immunizations completely suppressed the increase in the brain and protected the mice from death and splenic atrophy. After intranasal infection with 4 X 10(6) cells (ca. 25 LD50), the organisms rapidly increased in the nasal cavity and lungs and caused pneumonia and death. Immunization with 5 X 10(9) cells was effective in clearing the organisms from the lungs and in protecting against death and splenic atrophy. However, the organisms were not cleared from the nasal cavity for 60 to 150 days after the challenge with as little as 10(2) cells, even in the mice with an agglutinin titer as high as 1:10,000. |

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.
