摘要:
Immunogenic compositions containing Escherichia coli O157:H7 flagella including fusion proteins and methods using the immunogenic compositions are disclosed. Including an immune response in an animal to to Escherichia coli O157:H7 flagella will result in prevention of colonization by Escherichia coli O157:H7 in the animal or a reduction in the amount of Escherichia coli O157:H7 infecting the animal. The immune composition will prevent or reduce the attachment of Escherichia coli O157:H7 to cells within the animal.
