Immunity to systemic Salmonella infections.

abstract：:After several years of controversy, antibodies (Abs) are now believed to play an important role in the protection against fungal infections. Among them, recent data are strongly supporting the relevance of protective yeast killer toxin-like Abs ("antibiobodies", KT-Abs), which are able to exert a direct microbicidal a...
