چکیده

Satisfactory protection against influenza can be obtained by the use of vaccines which contain prevalent strains of killed influenza virus (e.g. Hawkins, Hatch, and McDonald, 1956; Meiklejohn, 1962). The antigenic material is usually suspended either in saline or in a vehicle which has an adjuvant effect. Unfortunately the antibody response after saline vaccine is relatively transient, even when a booster dose is given some weeks after the primary injection (Hennessy and Davenport, 1961). Saline vaccines also tend to produce unpleasant local and general reactions (MRC, 1957; Meichen, Rogan, and Howell, 1962). In contrast, enhanced and prolonged antibody

Virus shedding after H9N2 strain challenge of SPF Chickens immunized by an experimental Nano-Adjuvant and commercial oil emulsion avian influenza (H9N2) vaccines

Abstract Background and Aims: Vaccination of poultry has a major impact on the prevention and control of avian influenza viruses. Nanobiotechnology techniques provide a new approach for improvement of influenza vaccine efficacy. In this study, efficacy of an inactivated nano-adjuvant vaccine developed based on an endemic H9N2 virus was evaluated in SPF chickens. Materials and Methods: I...

Evaluation of immunogenicity of recombinant influenza nucleoprotein (NP) for universal vaccine

Background: Influenza vaccines based on conserved proteins are being developed persistently. The conserved protein vaccines based on Nucleoprotein (NP) are highly protected vaccines against influenza viruses that can be used as a Universal vaccine. Aluminum hydroxide (Alum) is the most common adjuvant used in vaccine formulation to improve immunization by altering the epitopes’ folds. However, ...

The effect of the hexanic extracts of fig (Ficus carica) and olive (Olea europaea) fruit and nanoparticles of selenium on the immunogenicity of the inactivated avian influenza virus subtype H9N2

Influenza is a contagious viral disease that is seen in avian, human and other mammals, so its control is important. Vaccination against influenza virus subtype H9N2 is one of the ways in controlling program, for this reason several vaccines has been produced. Recently, application of inactivated oil-emulsion vaccines in poultry for controlling low pathogenic avian influenza is increasing. At p...

Comparative Evaluation of Mx and Alum as Bio and Conventional Adjuvants in Inducing Immune Responses by Influenza DNA Vaccine

Background & Objective: DNA vaccines as a new generation of vaccines require adjuvant to improve vaccine immunogenicity; adjuvants can also increase the DNA vaccine efficacy. In this study, the effects of the host’s interferon-inducible Mx protein as bio adjuvant and conventional alum adjuvant were evaluated.   Materials & Methods: The BALB/c mice were immunized by different prime-boost strate...
