Abstract

Several genetically defined live attenuated strains of Salmonella have been developed which are showing considerable promise as vaccines against salmonellosis in both animals and humans. Because such vaccines elicit a broad spectrum of immune responses they have been employed for delivering heterologous antigens to the mammalian immune system. Much effort has been put into constructing and evaluating attenuated Salmonella strains that can be practically used as delivery systems in humans and in developing systems that provide stable expression of heterologous antigens in vivo.
