    Infect Immun. 1978 Feb;19(2):481-5.
    A lethal septicemia was induced in 11- and 12-day-old chicken embryos with intravenous inoculation of relatively small numbers of a clinical isolate (GBBHS-III-Bell) or a reference strain (GBBHS-III-D136-C) of group B beta-hemolytic streptococci (GBBHS). GBBHS-III-Bell was more virulent than GBBHS-III-D136-C, and 11-day-old chicken embryos were more susceptible than 12-day-old chicken embryos. Type-specific rabbit antisera protected the embryos from bacterial challenge, and this protective effect was absorbed with homologous but not heterologous GBBHS strains. A heterologous antiserum and normal rabbit sera provided some protection, which could be absorbed with either homologous or heterologous GBBHS strains. The chicken embryo is a suitable animal model for the study of infection and immunity with GBBHS type III.
