Abstract
⺠There are no vaccines available against non-typhoid Salmonella (NTS). ⺠Intestinal antibodies against O-antigens have proven protective in animal studies. ⺠Oral typhoid vaccine Ty21a effectively elicits intestinal antibodies to O-antigens. ⺠These antibodies cross-react with common NTS strains, such as Salmonella Enteritidis. ⺠Ty21a may have cross-protective efficacy against numerous NTS strains.
