Abstract
Human monocyte-derived macrophages (MDM) provided this laboratory with a tool to develop a primary-cell assay for evaluating the relative vi rulence of newly constructed Salmonella typhi carrier strains, In this study, the interaction with and survival within MDM were compared for Delta aroA143-attenuated strains, wildtype virulent strains, and the current oral-vaccine strain, Ty21a.
