Haemophilus Influenzae B
یکی از شایع ترین مننژیت باکتریایی در شیرخواران، هموفیلوس آنفلوانزا از نوع B (HIB) می باشد. به منظور تهیه و عرضه واکسنی جهت حفظ کودکان در مقابل این بیماری به بازار جهانی، تحقیقاتی انجام و نوعی واکسن در بخش تحقیقاتی آکسفورد مورد آزمایش و ارزیابی قرار گرفت تا در صورت تمایل والدین و کارکنان بهداشتی، تجویز همزمان آن با واکسن سه گانه و فلج اطفال عملی گردد.
متن کاملAntigenic characterization of the P6 protein of nontypable Haemophilus influenzae.
The purpose of this study was to characterize the degree of antigenic heterogeneity or conservation of a 16,600-dalton outer membrane protein (P6) among strains of nontypable Haemophilus influenzae. Immunization of rabbits with P6 isolated from individual strains resulted in antibody to P6 of all 25 strains tested. The titers of antibody in the sera were similar among the strains. Whole organis...
متن کاملAntigenic heterogeneity of lipid A of Haemophilus influenzae.
The chemical structure and biologic function of the lipid A portion of lipopolysaccharide are not identical among gram-negative bacteria. This study indicates that antigenically heterogeneous lipid A exists among strains of Haemophilus influenzae. An immunoglobulin G3 murine monoclonal antibody, 3D2, produced against a nontypable H. influenzae strain 3524 has specificity for a site on the lipid...
متن کاملAntigenic structures of Haemophilus aegyptius and Haemophilus influenzae demonstrated by the gel precipitation technique.
Until 1950 the differentiation of the KochWeeks bacillus and Haemophilus influenzae had not been well defined and their identity as separate species or single species has been controversial. However the results reported by Pittman and Davis (1950) showed that the Koch-Weeks bacillus, Haemophilus aegyptius, is a distinct species that can be separated from H. influenzae by serological means and, ...
متن کاملImmunogenicity and Efficacy of Different Haemophilus influenzae type b Vaccines
Haemophilus influenzae, a major cause of meningitis in young children leading to death and other neurological sequelae. The disease leaves 15 to 35% of the survivors with permanent disabilities, such as, mental retardation or deafness. Despite the availability of new and more powerful antibiotics children with Hib meningitis still suffer from high mortality or morbidity. The emergence of multir...
