Fifteen monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) directed against Salmonella typhi were produced and characterized. The specificities of the antibodies were determined by their binding patterns in an enzyme immunoassay, with a panel of lipopolysaccharides isolated from different bacteria. Seven MAbs reacted with S. typhi, Salmonella enteritidis, and Salmonella dublin (all belonging to serogroup D). One MAb also reacted with Salmonella paratyphi A and S. paratyphi B. Five MAbs reacted with S. typhi, S. enteritidis, S. dublin, and S. paratyphi B. Two MAbs did not bind to any lipopolysaccharide but showed reactivity with bacterial sonic extracts isolated from S. typhi, S. paratyphi A, S. paratyphi B, Escherichia coli, and Shigella sonnei. These antibodies would be helpful in studying the complexity of antigenic determinants expressed by S. typhi and the nature of the antibody response during typhoid and paratyphoid fevers and also in the diagnosis of the disease. 相似文献

A total of 168 strains of Salmonella were isolated in the Command Pathology Laboratory (WC) Delhi Cantt during the year 1990. Out of this, 143 were Salmonella typhi, 17 Salmonella paratyphi A, 7 Salmonella typhimurium and 1 Salmonella manhattan. The commonest phage type and biotype of Salmonella typhi was type E1 and type 1 respectively. The dominant biotype of Salmonella paratyphi A was type I. There was a very high degree of multidrug resistance of most of the strains. But all the strains were sensitive to ciprofloxacin and norfloxacin. 相似文献

Two hybrid cell clones secreting monoclonal antibodies against flagellar antigen isolated from Salmonella typhi, were produced and characterized. The antibodies bound specifically to the flagellar strain of S. typhi and did not show any reactivity with a flagellar S. typhi or with flagellar strains of S. dublin, S. paratyphi A, S. paratyphi B, S. typhimurium, E. coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Klebsiella pneumoniae. The antibodies recognized a determinant present on a group of proteins migrating between 45 Kd and 60 Kd. These monoclonal antibodies would be useful reagents for clinical and epidemiological studies. 相似文献

The in vivo growth of Salmonella paratyphi A, S. paratyphi B, S. paratyphi C, and S. typhi, as well as of an S. typhi-typhimurium hybrid, was studied in three different strains of mice. S. paratyphi A and B and S. typhi demonstrated very little growth potential in any of the intravenously infected mice, even after as many as 20 serial mouse passages. It was noted, however, that small numbers of viable S. paratyphi B and S. typhi persisted in the spleens of infected mice for up to 28 days. Salmonella paratyphi C and the S. typhi-typhimurium hybrid gave rise to progressive systemic infections beginning from very small intravenous inocula. The median lethal doses for the C57B1 strain of mouse were about five organisms. The relevance of these findings with regard to the development of an animal model for studying human typhoid fever vaccines is discussed. 相似文献

Objective: To study the mechanisms of antibiotic resistance in Salmonella typhi and Salmonella paratyphi B clinical isolates, and the clonality of resistant strains.
Method: Antibiotic susceptibility was tested by disk-agar diffusion. Conjugation experiments and plasmid analysis by agarose gel electrophoresis after Eco RI digestion were followed by hybridization to a digoxigenin-labeled TEM-type β-lactamase probe. DNA fingerprints were obtained by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis of Xba I-digested chromosomal DNA.
Results: Three S. typhi isolates (7% of the isolates studied), of which one was ampicillin resistant and the other two multiresistant (ampicillin, chloramphenicol, tetracycline, sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim and streptomycin), and two ampicillin-resistant S. paratyphi B isolates (25% of the isolates studied) were further evaluated. A 34-MDa conjugative plasmid, previously isolated from Salmonella enteritidis , conferred ampicillin resistance. A 100-MDa conjugative plasmid encoded resistance to chloramphenicol, tetracycline and sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim, as well as ampicillin. Chromosomal fingerprinting revealed two distinct resistant strains for each serovar which were different from a matched set of sensitive S. typhi strains.
Conclusions: Two conjugative, TEM-type β-lactamase-encoding plasmids conferred ampicillin resistance to S. typhi and S. paratyphi B. The 34-MDa plasmid was identical to that previously characterized from S. enteritidis , while the 100-MDa plasmid also encoded resistance to chloramphenicol, tetracycline and sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim. Resistant isolates did not belong to a single clone but rather represented distinct strains. 相似文献

Cross-reactivity in a delayed-type hypersensitivity (DH) response was studied in mice immunised with live Salmonella typhi, S. paratyphi A and S. paratyphi B. Extensive cross-reactions outside the serogroup limits were observed. The ability of DH cross-reacting and non-cross-reacting sonicates to generate activated macrophages was studied in mice immunised 3 months earlier with S. paratyphi B. Whereas DH cross-reacting S. poona sonicate generated activated macrophages the non-cross-reacting S. typhi sonicate did not. To determine whether infections due to diarrhoea-causing salmonellae generated cross-reactive cell-mediated immune responses against enteric fever-causing organisms, similar reverse experiments were performed in mice immunised with S. enteritidis. S. paratyphi A sonicate generated both effector responses, i.e., DH and activated macrophages. 相似文献

The Vi capsular polysaccharide (Vi) is both a virulence factor and a protective antigen of Salmonella typhi; its pathogenic role for Salmonella paratyphi C is less well understood. We found no differences between the antigenic and immunogenic properties and the structure of the Vi from representative strains of S. paratyphi C, S. typhi, and Citrobacter freundii. There were, however, differences in both the amount produced per cell and the degree of association with the cell among the Vi from the three species of Enterobacteriaceae. S. paratyphi C produced less Vi than both the wild-type S. typhi and C. freundii did, and it showed the fastest release of Vi into the media. These findings may provide an explanation for the inability of the Vi to inhibit completely the agglutination of S. paratyphi C by anti-O sera. In an outbreak of enteric fever caused by S. paratyphi C, 66 of 78 isolates (85%) were Vi positive. 相似文献

Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) were generated against porins, one of the major outer membrane proteins of Salmonella typhi. Six clones, designated MP1, MP2, MP3 (IgG2ak), MPN4, MPN6 (IgG1k) and MPN5 (IgG2bk) were characterized by enzyme immunoassay (ELISA) for their reactivity to porins from S. typhi, Salmonella paratyphi A, S. paratyphi B, S. paratyphi C, Salmonella choleraesuis, Salmonella enteritidis, Salmonella krefeld, Salmonella panama, Salmonella typhimurium, Escherichia coli B, Shigella flexneri 1b and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. All the clones positive for S. typhi porins showed varying reactivity towards several Salmonella species. However, none of them was positive for porins from other Gram-negative bacteria or for lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The affinity constant of these mAbs, except MPN4, was found to be in the higher range. Dot ELISA revealed that the mAbs recognized porins only in their native form. The results of inhibition ELISA using horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated MP1 suggest that the clones MP1, MP2, MP3, MPN5 and MPN6 secreted antibodies to identical epitope(s) of a 36-kDa peptide and MPN4 to a different epitope of a 35-kDa peptide. The possible applications of these mAbs were discussed. 相似文献

A total of 326 salmonella strains was isolated and studied from suspected enteric fever cases in Mumbai (Bombay) during a 2 year period from May 1992 to July 1994. These were identified using standard biochemical and serological tests. Bacteriophage typing, antibiotic sensitivity and conjugation experiments were also carried out. S. typhi was the most common serotype accounting for 75.46% of the strains. Among S. typhi strains 87% were biotype I and 13% were biotype II. 9.5% strains were of S. paratyphi A, 5.52% of S. typhimurium, 4.60% of S. worthington, 4.30% of S. havana and 0.62% of S. enteritidis. The commonest bacteriophage type of S. typhi was E1, and of S. paratyphi A type 1, whereas 88.88% strains of S. typhimurium were untypable. Most of the strains were multidrug resistant including commonly used antibiotics such as chloramphemicol, ampicillin, and cotrimaxazole. Quinolone derivatives such as Ciprofloxacin were found to be the most effective drugs. In the conjugation experiments there was direct transfer of resistance pattern and enbloc transfer of resistance was observed in most strains. Salmonella typhi is still the most commonly encountered species. There is an alarming increase in multidrug resistance. 相似文献

For a rapid diagnosis of typhoid fever, we developed a nested PCR based on the nucleotide sequence encoding the Vi antigen. All Salmonella typhi strains along with a Salmonella paratyphi C strain were PCR positive. This assay was able to detect S. typhi at the single-cell level. 相似文献

A total of 51 Salmonella strains were isolated during the six month period of May 1998 till October 1998. Of these, 41 (80.3%) were Salmonella typhi, 5 (9.8%) Salmonella pararyphi A,2 (3.9%) Salmonella worthington and 1 (1.9%) Salmonella senftenberg. The prevalent phage and biotype of Salmonella typhi was E1 (75%) and type 1 (90.2%) respectively. The commonest pattern of multiple drug resistance in Salmonella typhi was ACCoT and 92.5% of these belonged to phage E1. Out of the five Salmonella paratyphi A, one belonged to phage type 1 and the others were untypable. Similarly both the strains of Salmonella typhimurium were untypable. Thus the predominant isolate was Salmonella typhi and the commonest phage and biotype were E1 and biotype1 respectively. 相似文献

During the period 1982-86, a total of 657 Salmonella strains were isolated from various clinical samples processed in the Microbiology laboratory of Goa Medical College, Bambolim, Goa. The strains were distributed amongst 23 different Salmonella serotypes. The commonest serotypes encountered were S.typhimurium (66%) and S.typhi (24%), the other serotypes were S.bareilly (5.4%), S.paratyphi B (1.2%), S.newport (1.2%) and S.chester (0.8%). Stool samples yielded the maximum Salmonella isolates of which the S.typhimurium was the highest followed by S.bareilly. 相似文献

A semisolid selective-motility enrichment medium for the isolation of salmonellae from fecal specimens was developed which was based on Rappaport enrichment broth. During a 7-year period more than 30,000 stool samples were tested. The medium showed a high specificity (95.1%) and sensitivity (80.3%) when compared with MacConkey agar, SS agar, and brilliant green agar (after Selenite-F Enrichment [BBL Microbiology Systems]). Furthermore, our isolation rate of Salmonella species from fecal samples showed an increase of 22.3% when this semisolid medium was added to the routine culture media. Growth could easily be interpreted. The medium has a bias toward the isolation of Salmonella paratyphi B, but it is unsatisfactory for detecting the nonmotile strains Salmonella typhi and S. paratyphi A. 相似文献

The present study was undertaken to compare the changing trends of antibiograms of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi and Salmonella enterica serovar Paratyphi A isolates. A total of 80 isolates of salmonella obtained from blood cultures between 2001-2004 were included in the study. Identification and antibiotic sensitivities of the isolates were performed by using mini API (bio Merieux, France). Sixty isolates were identified as Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi and 20 were identified as Salmonella enterica serovar Paratyphi A. More than 67% of S.typhi and 80% of S.paratyphi A isolates were sensitive to chloramphenicol. Sensitivity of S.typhi isolates to cephalosporins was found to have increased from 2001-2004 while that of S.paratyphi A showed a decline. With increasing resistance to ciprofloxacin and the possibility of re-emergence of sensitivity to chloramphenicol, the policy of empirical treatment of enteric fever needs to be rationalized. 相似文献

Two monoclonal antibodies were produced against protein antigens of Salmonella typhi. One of the antibodies (STP14) belongs to the immunoglobulin G1K subclass, and the other (STP13) was assigned to the immunoglobulin G2a(kappa) subclass. Both antibodies could recognize the 34.0-kilodalton protein antigen from S. typhi. The specificity of these antibodies was tested by immunoblotting with a panel of crude protein antigens from 12 bacteria causing enteric fever and enteric fever-like illness: S. typhi, S. paratyphi A, S. paratyphi B, S. paratyphi C, S. choleraesuis, S. enteritidis, S. krefeld, S. panama, S. typhimurium, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas pseudomallei, and Yersinia enterocolitica. In a modified double-antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay they could detect the protein antigen at ca. 0.6 microgram/ml. These monoclonal antibodies should be of great value in the diagnostic test for detecting S. typhi antigen in samples of bodily fluids isolated from patients with typhoid fever and in studies of the chemical structure and other immunological properties of this 34.0-kilodalton protein. 相似文献

When grown on Rambach Propylene Glycol Containing Agar (Rambach agar), 216 of 230 (93.9%) Salmonella organisms isolated from patients and 54 of 62 (87.1%) Salmonella stock cultures produced a crimson-colored growth. Of the 14 clinical Salmonella isolates which displayed colors other than crimson, 8 were Salmonella typhi, 2 were Salmonella paratyphi A, and 4 belonged to other commonly isolated serotypes. All eight Salmonella stock cultures which failed to produce a crimson color belonged to rarely isolated serotypes. In contrast, of 83 non-Salmonella stock cultures distributed among 29 bacterial species, none produced a crimson color. These results suggest that while Rambach agar cannot preidentify S. typhi and S. paratyphi A, the medium can be used for the presumptive identification and can assist in the definitive identification of the overwhelming majority of Salmonella isolates. 相似文献

Vi is a linear homopolymer of 1,4 N-acetyl galactosaminuronic acid. It is present in S. typhi and some other members of Enterobacteriaceae. Vi antigen of S. typhi has been associated with the virulence of the organism and a vaccine based upon this antigen has been found to confer immunity against typhoid. In this paper, we report production and characterization of four hybrid cell clones secreting monoclonal antibodies against Vi capsular polysaccharide. Binding analysis using different derivatives of Vi showed that three monoclonal antibodies reacted with the antigenic determinant constituted by O-acetyl group and one recognised the epitope constituted by N-acetyl and carboxyl groups together. All the antibodies bound to Vi positive strains of S. typhi and did not show any significant reactivity with Vi negative strains of S. typhi, S. paratyphi A, S. paratyphi B and E. coli. Besides their utility in studying the sub-specificity of antibodies produced after vaccination with Vi, these antibodies would be helpful in the diagnosis of typhoid fever. 相似文献
