Immunization with Tetanus Toxoid
Although immunization with tetanus toxoid cannot be expected to produce an adequate permanent immunity, a number of investigators have confirmed and extended the observation of Ramon3 to the effect that an organism, once immunized, will respond to further injections of toxoid with an accelerated and increased antitoxin production. That this response to the "injection de rappel" does occur has b...
متن کاملTetanus toxoid immunization to reduce mortality from neonatal tetanus
BACKGROUND Neonatal tetanus remains an important and preventable cause of neonatal mortality globally. Large reductions in neonatal tetanus deaths have been reported following major increases in the coverage of tetanus toxoid immunization, yet the level of evidence for the mortality effect of tetanus toxoid immunization is surprisingly weak with only two trials considered in a Cochrane review. ...
متن کاملEffect of vitamin A supplementation on immunoglobulin G subclass responses to tetanus toxoid in children.
Previously, we demonstrated that administering vitamin A supplements to children resulted in a significant increase in the immunoglobulin G (IgG) response generated against a vaccine dose of tetanus toxoid (TT) (R. D. Semba et al., J. Nutr. 122:101-107, 1991). However, from these analyses we could not determine whether there was an increase in levels of IgG of the subclass presumed to be import...
متن کاملImmunological studies on tetanus toxoid
T toxoid is one of the most successful vaccines used in immunization programme almost all over the world. Neonatal tetanus can be prevented by immunizing women of childbearing age with tetanus toxoid, either during pregnancy or outside of pregnancy. Tetanus vaccine is used either in mono or in combination with other antigens i.e. Diphtheria, Pertussis (whole cell or acellular), Hepatitis B, Hae...
متن کاملAerosol immunization of guinea pigs with fluid tetanus toxoid.
The concept of mass vaccination of large populations by inhalation of a vaccine in the form of an aerosol [Aleksandrov and Gefen, J. Microbiol. Epidemiol. Immunobiol. (USSR) 31:997, 1960; Sawyer, Kuehne, and Gochenour, Military Med. 129:1040, 1964] has a strong appeal. Aerosol vaccination could immunize a maximal number of people in a minimal period of time, and possibly could confer superior p...
