| Abstract | ||
| Two groups of human males with urinary tract infections were elected . First ,53 senescent (60 – 95 y) and second adulthood (35-45y) to study the effect of male senescence on urinary tract mucosal immune response during infections . Single and mixed infections were noted . The single was dominant. Gram negative rods were the major uropathogens .Urinary mucosal immunoglobulins were separated using 6% PEG 6000 D. from senescent and adulthood urine samples . Reactions of whole cell bacterins with UMIG revealed reduction in specific antibody titers in senescent in comparison to adulthood ..Senescence may be involved in this titer reduction | ||
