Protective effect of immunization with Salmonella minnesota Re 595 against ascending Escherichia coli O6K13H1 pyelonephritis in rats.
Active as well as passive immunization with formalin-killed S. minnesota Re 595 bacteria protected against experimental, ascending pyelonephritis caused by E. coli O6K13H1 in rats. Absorption of the hyperimmune sera with Re antigen before passively given did not eliminate the protective effect. The specificity of protective antibodies is discussed.
