One thousand neonatal calves, allocated in a factorial design into four groups, were vaccinated subcutaneously with two doses each of either killed Escherichia coli (0111:B4) J5 bacterin or a UC Davis modified live, genetically altered (aro-) Salmonella dublin vaccine, or both, or with a placebo. In this prospective double-blind study to determine the immunogenicity and protective effects of both vaccines on bovine neonates in field conditions, calves were observed daily until 2 months of age, and serum samples from selected study calves were obtained at five different time points. No clinical adverse vaccine reactions were observed. Overall mortality was 7.5% (75 of 1000), E. coli and S. dublin infection being the most commonly associated aetiological agents of deaths. Both J5 (p < 0.01) and Salmonella (p = 0.05) vaccines were significantly effective in reducing the mortality rate but without an additive effect. The role of passive transfer was important in calf survival. The E. coli J5 and (aro-) S. dublin vaccination schedule employed significantly (p < 0.001) elevated J5 and Salmonella-specific serum ELISA antibody titres, respectively, by the sixth week of age.

D004797 Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay An immunoassay utilizing an antibody labeled with an enzyme marker such as horseradish peroxidase. While either the enzyme or the antibody is bound to an immunosorbent substrate, they both retain their biologic activity; the change in enzyme activity as a result of the enzyme-antibody-antigen reaction is proportional to the concentration of the antigen and can be measured spectrophotometrically or with the naked eye. Many variations of the method have been developed.

D004926 Escherichia coli A species of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria (GRAM-NEGATIVE FACULTATIVELY ANAEROBIC RODS) commonly found in the lower part of the intestine of warm-blooded animals. It is usually nonpathogenic, but some strains are known to produce DIARRHEA and pyogenic infections. Pathogenic strains (virotypes) are classified by their specific pathogenic mechanisms such as toxins (ENTEROTOXIGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI), etc. Alkalescens-Dispar Group,Bacillus coli,Bacterium coli,Bacterium coli commune,Diffusely Adherent Escherichia coli,E coli,EAggEC,Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli,Enterococcus coli,Diffusely Adherent E. coli,Enteroaggregative E. coli,Enteroinvasive E. coli,Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli
