Intraperitoneal immunization of mice and subsequent challenge with purified cholera toxin (CT) were employed to evaluate the anti-cholera toxin protective effect of two new oral cholera vaccines, live CVD 103-HgR and killed B subunit-whole cell (BS-WC). CVD 103-HgR vaccine demonstrated 100% protection of mice against 2.25 LD50 and 70% against 3 LD50 of CT. Mice immunized with BS-WC vaccine were protected against 2.25 and 3 LD50 of CT in 88 and 62% of cases, respectively. All three killed parenteral vaccines failed to protect against CT. We suggest this mouse system for preliminary evaluation of the antitoxic protective activity of cholera vaccines.
