Abstract

In the preceding contribution by Douce et al., a series of TnphoA mutants were described which were generated from <i>Salmonella typhimurium</i> strain TML and whose invasive phenotype was determined in a HEp-2 cell assay for invasiveness (Douce et al., 1991). To date no quantitative system has been described in which invasiveness has been measured in functional gut <i>in vitro</i>. This contribution describes such a system.
