Construction of a potential live oral bivalent vaccine for typhoid fever and cholera-Escherichia coli-related diarrheas.

abstract：:Previous experimentation has highlighted a number of difficulties in the development of carrier-based bivalent vaccines (J.-F. Viret and D. Favre, Biologicals 22:361-372, 1994) In an attempt to obviate these carrier strains. Toward this aim, a series of defined rfbInaba deletion (delta rfbInaba) mutants of the cholera...
