Active and Passive Immunization in the Adult Rabbit Ileal Loop Model as an Assay for Production of Antitoxin Immunity by Cholera Vaccines

Wiley H Mosley 1, Ansaruddin Ahmed 1
PMCID: PMC315432  PMID: 5344118

Abstract

Three field trial cholera vaccines did not induce antitoxic immunity. A choleragenic toxin induced high-serum neutralizing antibody, but protection to loop challenge with toxin was minimal.
