| Abstract | The fate of virulent Salmonella typhimurium within macrophages of guinea pigs was assessed by a suspended cell culture procedure. The present study confirmed that macrophages of normal guinea pigs were capable of inactivating the ingested salmonellae. Macrophages of previously infected guinea pigs were not endowed with any significant increase in their ability to eliminate the ingested pathogen. However, the immune macrophages were observed to clump together tightly when they were exposed to salmonellae. This phenomenon was attributed to the presence of specific cytophilic antibodies on the immune macrophages. When immune macrophages were inactivated with Merthiolate, they agglutinated with both the H and the O antigens of S. typhimurium, but not with the O antigens of other species of Salmonella nor with the O antigens of Escherichia coli. Cytophilic antibodies could be eluted from immune macrophages by incubation in the absence of immune serum. Conversely, cytophilic antibodies could be passively transferred onto normal macrophages by incubation in the presence of immune serum. Furthermore, using immune serum previously adsorbed with the O antigens of S. typhimurium, cytophilic antibodies against the H antigens alone could be transferred onto normal macrophages, or those against the O antigens alone could be eluted from immune macrophages. These data suggest that immune macrophages possess specific cytophilic antibodies against both the H and the O antigens of S. typhimurium. It is proposed that the presence of cytophilic antibodies on immune macrophages represents an expression of antibacterial cellular immunity by enhanced clumping and phagocytic activities of the macrophages. |

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.
