CJ-50002 is an oral vaccine against V.vulnificus infection composed of whole cell lysate of V. vulnificus. The general pharmacological properties of CJ-50002 were evaluated in various animals and in vitro system. CJ-50002 at oral doses of 0.2, 2 and 20 mg/kg had no effect on general behavior in mice, chromo- and electro-convulsions in mice, writhing syndrome induced by acetic acid in mice, body temperature in rats, charcoal meal propulsion in mice and urine and electrolytes excretion in rats. However, oral administration of CJ-50002 at dose of 20 mg/kg prolonged the hexobarbital-inuced sleeping inducing time in mice. In anesthetized dogs, CJ-50002 showed no effect on blood pressure, heart rate and ECG but decreased the respiratory rate and femoral blood flow at dose of 20 mg/kg. p.o. CJ-50002 had no effect on the contractile response of the isolated guinea pig ileum to various spasmogen at concentrations of 0.2, 2 and 20 $mu extrm{g}$/ml, respectively. Since these pharmacological effects of CJ-500o2 were observed at dose much greater than those in clinical use (approximately 0.16 mg/kg, p.o.), it is likely that this vaccine may be relatively free of undesirable effects in clinical practice.
