Intracellular Multiplication of Brucella abortus in Normal and Immune Mononuclear Phagocytes.

Abstract

The results of typical experiments in host-parasite relationships at cellular level, using Brucella abortus-mononuclear phagocyte systems, have been presented. The intracellular multiplication of Br. abortus in normal guinea pig mononuclear phagocytes was observed. In Brucella abortus-immune mononuclear phagocyte systems the multiplication of the organisms was significantly restricted.
