Protein-malnourished rats had greater numbers of bacteria in their livers and spleens compared with numbers in control rats following a sublethal intraperitoneal dose of Salmonella typhimurium. However, the febrile responses of both groups of rats to infection were similar. The ability to mount a normal febrile response does not necessarily reflect the ability of the host to contain an infection.
与接受亚致死剂量鼠伤寒沙门氏菌腹腔注射后的对照大鼠相比,蛋白质营养不良的大鼠肝脏和脾脏中的细菌数量更多。然而,两组大鼠对感染的发热反应相似。产生正常发热反应的能力不一定反映宿主控制感染的能力。
