Attenuated salmonella gallinarum mutant strains and uses thereof

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to Salmonella Gallinarum mutant strains and uses thereof. A vaccine composition according to an aspect has no risk of reverting to pathogenicity, has no residual pathogenicity due to detoxification of an endotoxin, and does not cause lesions and bacterial re-isolation, thereby exhibiting significantly improved safety compared to the existing fowl typhoid vaccines. In addition, since the vaccine composition induces a high-level immune response even when administered to young chicks, it may be used regardless of age, and as the vaccine strain may be used as a live vaccine having an excellent protective capability by itself, the vaccine composition may be useful for preventing and alleviating fowl typhoid.
