The role of polymorphonuclear leucocytes in protecting mice vaccinated against Pseudomon as aeruginosa infections

The role of polymorphonuclear leucocytes in protecting mice vaccinated against Pseudomon as aeruginosa infections

R J Jones et al. Br J Exp Pathol. 1973 Aug.

Abstract

In the presence of serum from normal unvaccinated mice polymorphonuclear leucocytes taken from mice 1, 2, 3 and 4 days after one injection of a pseudomonas vaccine phagocytosed progressively more bacteria on each successive day. More bacteria were phagocytosed by polymorphs from vaccinated mice in serum taken 3, 4 or 7 days after vaccination than in serum taken earlier.

Polymorphs from vaccinated mice ingested more of the strains of bacteria against which vaccinated mice were protected than other pseudomonas strains.
