Abstract:Salmonella typhi infection leads to typhoid fever on a global scale, particularly in developing countries. The currently available vaccine has its drawbacks that sporadically render a concern. Thereby, a new proffered vaccine needs to be proposed, such as a vaccine from bacteria’s protein subunits. Vaccine subunits contain only the antigenic portion of the pathogen needed to elicit a protective immune response. This research aims to assess the immunogenic potential of the protein subunit of Salmonella typhi an… Show more
