| Abstract | Peritoneal macrophages recovered from chickens 15 to 20 days after inoculation with fowlpox virus and showing a delayed hypersensitivity reaction against fowlpox antigens demonstrated an enhanced antimicrobial effect against fowlpox virus as well as unrelated viruses and bacteria. Inoculation of normal chicken macrophage cultures with fowlpox virus resulted in approximately a 200-fold increase in virus titer by 96 h, whereas the virus showed less than a fourfold increase in macrophage cultures from fowlpox-immune chickens. Similarly, the titer of Newcastle disease virus increased by more than 1 log in cultures of normal macrophages, whereas the titer decreased by approximately 1 log after infection of fowlpox-immune macrophages. Vaccinia, vesicular stomatitis, and herpes simplex viruses, which are not natural pathogens of chickens, failed to replicate in cultures of either normal or fowlpox-immune macrophages. By using Salmonella gallinarum, it was further demonstrated that the antimicrobial activity of fowlpox-immune macrophages encompassed not only nonspecific viruses but also bacteria. Infection of normal macrophages with Salmonella resulted in intracellular replication of the organism between 0 and 24 h as determined by microscope examination and viable bacteria counts. In contrast, cultures of fowlpox-immune macrophages failed to show an increase in intracellular organisms and showed a marked decrease in viable bacteria. In conclusion, these studies clearly showed that cellular immunity, previously demonstrated in mammalian species, develops in chickens after infection with fowlpox virus. |

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.
