Virulence of broad- and narrow-host-range Salmonella enterica serovars in the streptomycin-pretreated mouse model.

abstract：:Using fluorescent antibody techniques (FA) and light microscopy (LM) and electron microscopy (EM), this paper describes the morphological features of the ileum in the DK1 mouse orally challenged with adenovirus K87. At the peak of infection, virus is easily identified by FA in the epithelium of the villi and crypts of...
