title: [Experimental study of the preventive properties of immune milk containing Shigella antibodies].
abstract: The protective properties of the mammary gland secretions of cows immunized with Shigella sonnei into the udder were studied. As a model for this study the intranasal and intraperitoneal infection of white mice was used. Immune milk was found to have pronounced protective properties against S. sonnei. When introduced intraperitoneally, this milk protected the animals infected with S. sonnei from death. When introduced intranasally, it not only protected the animals from death, but perceptibly inhibited the development of the pathological process in the pulmonary tissue, preventing the multiplication of shigellae and accelerating the elimination of the infective agents from the lungs of the infected animals. As a rule, the degree of protective action was determined by the level of antibodies to shigellae in the substrate under test.
