the amount of antibodies produced in colostrum following injection of the trivalent rota-corona virus and e. coli vaccine was evaluated to undrestand the priventive effects of vaccine against calf diarrhea. forthy six and 27 pregnant cows were selected from industrial dairy herds as a treatment and control groups, respectively in urmia iran. a 5 ml trivalent rota-corona virus and e .coli vaccin...

of age, and the attack rate decreased as patients’ ages increased (6). Reactive vaccination campaigns in some communes of Madarounfa district that had reached the epidemic threshold were launched by the Ministry of Public Health with a remaining 2009 stockpile (16,527 doses, 35.7% coverage) of the quadrivalent polysaccharide vaccine (A/C/Y/W135) from Médecins sans Frontières. The International ...

Live attenuated cold-adapted reassortant (CR) influenza virus vaccines were evaluated in institutionalized asthmatic children and severe psychomotor-retarded (SPR) patients. Almost all the vaccinees were seropositive to the vaccine strains before immunization. Trivalent CR vaccine (containing A H1N1 (CR-125), A H3N2 (CR-149) and B (CRB-117)), bivalent CR vaccine (CR-125 and CR-149) and monovale...

OBJECTIVES To determine the relative incidence (RI) of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) in a single Australian state following pandemic (H1N1) 2009 influenza A immunisation (monovalent vaccine or seasonal trivalent influenza vaccine [TIV]) in 2009-2010. DESIGN, SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS Active GBS surveillance (cases assessed by two neurologists according to the Brighton criteria) from 30 Septemb...

In 1995, as part of its measles control programs, the National Advisory Council on Immunization recommended the use of the trivalent measles-mumps-rubella vaccine (MMR) for the second measles vaccination. However, the Mumps and Rubella Consensus Conference demonstrated that mumps are considered a very low-priority disease in Canada and a single-dose vaccination program seems acceptable. Since t...

The early experience of the United Kingdom (UK) is that influenza B has dominated the influenza 2012/13 season. Overall trivalent influenza vaccine (TIV) adjusted vaccine effectiveness (VE) against all laboratory-confirmed influenza in primary care was 51% (95% confidence interval (CI): 27% to 68%); TIV adjusted VE against influenza A alone or influenza B alone was 49% (95% CI: -2% to 75%) and ...

BACKGROUND Healthcare workers (HCWs) are at increased risk of getting influenza than the general population, therefore putting patients at risk of nosocomial infection. Influenza vaccination coverage among HCWs is low despite the availability of a safe and effective vaccine. However, the reasons for such a poor uptake are not well reported in Malaysia. This study aimed at assessing the rate of ...

Charge inversion of DNA is a counterintuitive phenomenon in which the effective charge of DNA switches its sign from negative to positive in the presence of multivalent counterions. The underlying microscopic mechanism is still controversial whether it is driven by a specific chemical affinity or electrostatic ion correlation. It is well known that DNA shows no charge inversion in normal aqueou...
