Prevalence of diphtheria toxin antibodies in human sera from a cross-section of the Italian population.
A polycentric study was carried out between 1993 and 1995 in order to evaluate diphtheria immunity on a representative sample of population from different areas of Italy. To determine diphtheria antitoxin, sera from 5187 apparently healthy subjects, divided according to sex and age groups, were titrated using an ELISA indirect method. A basic protective titre of diphtheria antitoxin (> 0.01 IU ...
متن کاملAdjuvanticity of pGPL-Mc and LRS in the immune responses of monkeys to oral immunization with diphtheria and tetanus toxoids.
Experiments were carried out to examine the adjuvanticity of polar glycopeptidolipids of Mycobacterium chelonae (pGPL-Mc) or the London rocket seed (LRS) when combined with diphtheria and tetanus toxoids in an oral immunization of the African green monkey. The results showed that none of the monkeys receiving diphtheria and tetanus toxoids combined with 25 mg/kg of pGPL-Mc showed an increase in...
متن کاملCollaborative study for the validation of serological methods for potency testing of diphtheria toxoid vaccines - extended study: correlation of serology with in vivo toxin neutralisation.
Phase I of BSP034 collaborative study was extended in two laboratories to include correlation of serology with in vivo toxin neutralisation test (TNT) using 2 separate sets of 20 serum pools, produced in-house. The study investigated the extent to which the in vitro methods for diphtheria antibodies, Vero cell assay and diphtheria enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for diphtheria antitoxin (D-EL...
متن کاملDiphtheria antitoxin levels in the Netherlands: a population-based study.
In a population-based study in the Netherlands, diphtheria antitoxin antibodies were measured with a toxin-binding inhibition assay in 9, 134 sera from the general population and religious communities refusing vaccination. The Dutch immunization program appears to induce long-term protection against diphtheria. However, a substantial number of adults born before the program was introduced had n...
متن کاملSeroprevalence of antibody against diphtheria among the population in Khon Kaen province, Thailand.
To assess diphtheria immunity in the northeastern region of Thailand, a seroepidemiological survey was undertaken in 2011 from 516 healthy individuals (age range 2-87 years) in Khon Kaen province. Diphtheria antitoxin levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and titers of ≥0.1 IU/mL were considered to be protective antitoxin levels. Among the studied population, 94.8% have full...
