Induced with an Aluminum Hydroxide Vaccine

چکیده
Mice immunized with a subcutaneous protocol combining killed para sites and aluminum hydroxide gel exhibited significant resistance against subsequent challenge with Leishmania donovani promastigotes. Protec tion was greatest using 25 mg of aluminum hydroxide per injection. Resis tance elicited by this killed parasite and aluminum hydroxide protocol was as effective on day 14 as that provided by immunization with a glucan and killed parasite preparation, and more effective in hepatic amastigote reduction at day 28. The effectiveness of aluminum hydroxide as an adju vant appears to result, at least in part, from its ability to activate macro phages, thus aiding in the elimination of this intracellular parasite.

Background: Aluminum salts are common adjuvants in human and animal vaccine preparations. The two adjuvants aluminum phosphate and aluminum hydroxide show acceptable immunoadjuvant properties with many antigens. These two salts have different physicochemical characteristics that make each one suitable for certain antigens. The surface antigen of Hepatitis B (HBsAg) has several antigenic epitope...

In Process Quality Control Factors Affecting Efficacy of Avian Influenza (H5N1) Vaccine
Avian Influenza (AI) is causing heavy economic losses in domestic poultry all over the world. It is caused by a highly pathogenic virus H5N1. The present study was aimed at assessing the quality control parameters during the process of vaccine production. The virus was recovered from lungs, trachea and fecal contents of the infected birds in chicken embryos. Binary ethylenimine (5mM) inactivate...
