ABSTRACT:
Methods and compositions are provided for the cloning and expression of plasmids bearing genes coding for the non-toxic subunit of the heat-laible enterotoxin (LT-B) of E. coli. These plasmids may be cloned into stable avirulent strains of Salmonella typhi and used to make oral bivalent vaccines. Such vaccines may be used to prevent typhoid fever and cholera-like enterotoxin-induced diarrheal disease.
