“…This was not unexpected in view of the previous reports on cross agglutination between Y. enterocolitica serotype IX and Brucella species (Ahvonen & Sievers, 1969;Ahvonen, Jansson & Aho, 1969) and also between Brucella species and V. cholerae (Feeley, 1969;Gangarosa et al 1970). However, in the present study, the antigenic relationship between Yersinia and V. cholerae appeared to be rather complex.…”

“…The presence of vibriocidal antibody in the sera of American citizens who have never been vaccinated against cholera nor exposed to cholera infection (Finkelstein, Powell, Woodrow & Krevans, 1965;Verwey et al 1969) has raised the question of the specificity of the vibriocidal reaction. Cross-reactivity between Vibrio cholerae and Brucella species is widely known (Eisele, McCullough, Beal & Burrows, 1946;Gallut, 1950;Mathur, 1960) and has recently been again emphasized by Feeley (1969) and Gangarosa, DeWitt, Feeley & Adams (1970), who found other instances of the presence of vibriocidal antibody in human sera in the absence of exposure to cholera infection. Corbel & Cullen (1970) Immune sera against V. cholerae Ogawa and Inaba were prepared in rabbits (four for each serotype) by injecting live saline suspensions from a 7 hr.-old growth (at 370 C.) on heart infusion agar containing about 2 x 109 organisms per ml.…”

“…infections 19 may show fourfold or greater increases in vibriocidal titers, but vibriocidal titers do not increase significantly after other infections, including other Vibrio spp. and non-O1 V. cholerae.…”

“…One volunteer experienced a rise in vibriocidal titer after receiving placebo; he remained clinically well during this period. This response may represent cross-reacting antibodies to some subclinical infection (6) or, less likely, a specimen collection, laboratory, or protocol error. After immunization, serum IgG anti-cholera toxin rose in 61% of vaccinees who subsequently underwent challenge.…”
