laboratory studies on the el tor vibrio.	the identity of the el tor vibrio is a controversial question that the usual methods of bacteriological investigation have as yet failed to settle. in this paper, the author presents the results of a study of the interrelationships between el tor vibrios, true cholera vibrios and water vibrios, as revealed by the behaviour of the vibrios in the bile system and in the small intestine of experimental animals.the vibrios investigated included two strains isolated at the el tor quarantine station on ...	1963	13986981

preliminary studies on the development of a live oral vaccine for anti-cholera immunization.	since humoral anti-o antibodies play little part in protective immunity against cholera, and the infecting organisms remain limited in the gut, effective prophylaxis will require the production of active immunity in cells of the mucous membrane of the intestinal canal. it has not been possible to achieve this objective satisfactorily by injections of killed cholera cultures. in laboratory studies for a solution of the problem it has been shown that vibrio cholerae and v. el tor strains possess i ...	1963	14107748

studies on the haemolytic activity of el tor vibrios.	in view of reports of inconsistent results with the haemolytic test for identification of the el tor biotype of vibrio cholerae, a study was made of the experimental variables involved in order to achieve more precise standardization of the procedure. it was found that different types of media and different incubation times of a culture in a particular medium exerted a profound influence on the results. the authors describe the materials and conditions for performance of a reliable haemolytic te ...	1963	13944689

the effect of gastrointestinal enzymes on cholera toxin.	in clinical cases of cholera vibrio cholerae grows, multiplies and undergoes lysis in the intestine. although there are numerous works on the enzymatic make-up of v. cholerae, there is hardly any literature on the effect of different gastrointestinal enzymes on the toxin in bringing about the signs and symptoms of the disease. according to one school of thought, cholera toxin plays an important role in the pathogenesis of the disease.the effects of gastrointestinal enzymatic extracts of rabbit a ...	1963	20604142
the bacteriophage-susceptibility test in differentiating vibrio cholerae and vibrio el tor.	the haemolytic properties of el tor vibrios are usually utilized to differentiate them from the non-haemolytic cholera vibrios. in some freshly isolated vibrio el tor strains, however, the haemolytic property may be ill-developed and this test may then fail to reveal the true identity of the strains. in order to overcome this difficulty a number of tests have been developed. investigations reported in this paper indicate that, of these, the bacteriophage-susceptibility test gives the most persis ...	1963	20604144
bacteriophage typing of cholera.	a bacteriophage-typing scheme for vibrio cholerae has been developed on the basis of the pattern of susceptibility of v. cholerae strains to four groups of freshly isolated cholera bacteriophages. some 4066 strains of v. cholerae isolated in calcutta during the period 1955-61 have been classified into seven types and subtypes. less than 1% of the strains were untypable. no correlation was found to exist between the phage-types and serological types of v. cholerae. in lysogenic strains, however, ...	1963	20604145
an experimental study on the usefulness of bacteriophage in the prophylaxis and treatment of cholera.	five different samples of bacteriophages were tried on weanling rabbits intra-intestinally infected with the inaba 569 b strain of vibrio cholerae. three of these prevented the onset of the disease and proved useful in the treatment of early cases of experimental cholera. the prophylactic and curative (if administered early) values of choleraphage observed during these studies appear to agree with the observations of several workers in clinical cases. one of the choleraphages used proved to be v ...	1963	20604146

alveolar cell carcinoma complicating sickle cell anemia: a chance occurrence?	alveolar cell carcinoma, a neoplasm associated with pre-existing inflammatory lung disease, has not been reported previously in patients with sickle cell disease. we present such a patient and suggest that chronic pulmonary scarring in this setting predisposed to development of his malignancy. as survival increases in individuals with sickle cell disease, alveolar cell carcinoma must be considered in these differential diagnosis of otherwise unexplained chronic pulmonary infiltrates.	1963	2554726

agglutinating, lethal toxin and e1 tor haemolysin neutralizing potency of sera in cholera.	there is a lack of agreement as to the significance of agglutination test results in cholera, and recent epidemics of "classic" vibrio comma and el tor infections have provided an opportunity to compare this test with two other serological procedures recently introduced in cholera work. these are determination of the circulating antitoxin expressed as the lethal toxin neutralizing power of a serum, and determination of the haemolysin neutralizing power through serial test-tube dilutions.applying ...	1964	14215189
segregation of genetic factors during recombination in vibrio cholerae, strain 162.	in this paper an analysis of genetic recombinants derived from crosses between two mutant stocks of vibrio cholerae, strain 162, differing from one another in nutritional requirements and other characters, is presented. it is shown that parent strains possessing a fertility factor (designated as the p factor) function as gene-donors while p(-) strains (without the p factor) serve as gene-recipients. linkage between two genetic factors (purine and valine + isoleucine) is demonstrated and the prob ...	1964	14215190

neuraminidases and influenza virus infection in embryonated eggs.	highly purified neuraminidase from influenza virus prevents embryonated eggs from infection by lee-b influenza virus. the degree of prevention afforded is equal to that of neuraminidases from vibrio cholerae and from clostridium perfringens when assayed at the same enzyme activity. the preventive effect is much lower against pr-8 virus. the results support the concept that the intact "receptor" containing sialic acid is required for the binding and infection of cells by influenza viruses.	1964	14107434

characteristics of non-cholera vibrios isolated from cases of human diarrhoea.	eighty-two organisms tentatively identified as non-cholera vibrios were isolated from cases of diarrhoea occurring in east pakistan. in 19 well-studied cases they were the predominant organism recovered, and a rise in agglutinating-antibody titre was found in six of these cases.because of this additional evidence that non-cholera vibrios cause diarrhoeal disease, it was necessary to evaluate simple screening tests as a means of recognizing them. it was found that all organisms that produced a ge ...	1965	5294177

vibriocine production in the cholera and el tor vibrios.	various tests have been developed to differentiate vibrio cholerae and v. el tor, since the latter was formerly considered to be of little clinical importance. more recently, however, it has become evident that these two organisms can produce an identical disease. consequently, it is of interest to detect similarities between them. in the present report, a method for the detection of bacteriocine ("vibriocine") activity of v. cholerae and v. el tor is described. the production of vibriocine appe ...	1965	5322753
clinical and physiological observations during an epidemic outbreak of non-vibrio cholera-like disease in calcutta.	during march through june 1964, an epidemic of acute non-vibrio diarrhoeal disease, closely simulating cholera, occurred in calcutta. to clarify the etiology and pathophysiology and improve the therapy of this illness, bacteriological and metabolic studies were performed on 145 consecutive hypotensive adult male patients admitted with acute diarrhoeal disease to the calcutta infectious disease hospital. bacteriological and serological studies clearly demonstrated that the majority of patients wi ...	1965	5295147
a controlled field trial of the effectiveness of cholera and cholera el tor vaccines in the philippines. preliminary report; philippines cholera committee.	in a controlled field trial on some 584 000 people in an endemic cholera el tor area in the philippines, it was demonstrated that cholera vaccines gave moderate protection of short duration. injection of a single dose of vaccine prepared from either vibrio cholerae or vibrio el tor gave over 50% protection for the first two months. the immunity conferred by the v. cholerae vaccine rapidly declined after three to four months. the v. el tor vaccine gave protection for six months, but its effective ...	1965	5294176
