Immunization of Cattle Against Rabies Using Inactivated Cell Culture Vaccines

Active Immunization of Cattle with Killed Vaccines Prepared from Cell Cultured Rinderpest Virus

Protection against experimental Helicobacter pylori infection after immunization with inactivated H. pylori whole-cell vaccines.

The protective effect of therapeutic oral immunization with homologous and heterologous formalin-inactivated Helicobacter pylori cells given together with cholera toxin as an adjuvant was evaluated with C57BL/6 mice infected with H. pylori Sydney strain 1 (SS1). The bacteria used for immunization were strains that were either homologous or heterologous with regard to the O antigen (i.e., the Le...

Antibody response in cattle after vaccination with inactivated and attenuated rabies vaccines.

Despite the absence of current official reports showing the number of cattle infected by rabies, it is estimated that nearly 30,000 bovines are lost each year in Brazil. In order to minimize the important economic losses, control of the disease is achieved by eliminating bat colonies and by herd vaccination. In this study, we compare the antibody response in cattle elicited by vaccination with ...

Prophylactic immunization of humans against rabies by intradermal inoculation of human diploid cell culture vaccine.

The antirabies human diploid cell vaccine produced by 1'Institute Merieux, Lyon, France, was administered intradermally to 35 high-risk volunteers using 0.2-ml amounts and various immunization schedules. Three groups never before vaccinated against rabies developed virus-neutralizing antibodies, the titer of which was dose dependent. A single injection stimulated the formation of antibodies. Fo...

Reduced Regiment for Human Pre-exposure Immunization Against Rabies

The main aim of this study was to find a suitable rabies vaccination protocol which would allow usage of lower volumes of vaccine, fewer clinical visits and above all, enough serological effectiveness for high-risk individuals requiring pre-exposure immunization. Human diploid cell rabies vaccine was administered intradermally and intramuscularly in 60 previously unvaccinated volunteers, aged 1...
