Investigation of 'Escherichia coli' Enterotoxins
Abstract
The results of the present investigation indicate a new approach to the development of a single vaccine formula which may ultimately be used to confer protection against both cholera and E. coli diarrheal disease in man and domestic animals. Fundamentally, the design of the vaccine is based on the well- documented ability of cholera antitoxin to neutralize both cholera and heat- labile E. coli enterotoxins and on the ability of certain E. coli antigens to enhance the immune response to cholera toxoid and possibly whole-cell Cholera Vaccine, as well.
