Temperature Sensitivity of the Diphtheria Containing Vaccines
نویسنده
چکیده
Vaccine management is basically all the actions related to handling of vaccines at the country level from the moment they arrive until the moment they are used. These include arrival and acceptance procedures, appropriate temperature monitoring, ensuring sufficient storage volume, maintaining standards of buildings, equipment and vehicles, effective stock management, vaccine delivery systems as well as effective use of policies such as the multidose vial policy (MDVP) and the use of vaccine vial monitors (VVM).

Impact of vaccination on epidemiology of diphtheria and pertussis
Whooping cough and diphtheria are vaccine preventable diseases. Diphtheria, due to Corynebacterium diphtheriae or Corynebactium ulcerans, two Gram positive bacteria, is a serious upper respiratory tract disease with high morbidity and mortality rates. Vaccination, via an acellular vaccine composed only of purified, detoxified diphtheria toxin, has significantly reduced the incidence of the dise...

The immunogenicity of ten different formulations of intranasal diphtheria and tetanus vaccines which containing different absorption enhancers, adjuvants and other excipients were determined in guinea pigs by the serum neutralization (SN) method. From these ten formulations, it was selected four formulations which gave significant immunogenicity in guinea pigs. In order to design the "final f...

The aim of me present work was to investigate rhe potential utility of nanoparticles made of chitosan (CS) and also CS chemically modified with polyethylene glycol (CS-PEG) as new vehicles for improving na^al vaccine delivery. For mis purpose, diphtheria toxoid (DT) was chosen as a model antigen. DT was entrapped within nanoparticles made of CS of different molecular weight, and also made of C...

We measured the tetanus and diphtheria antitoxin responses after administration of one dose of a mixed carrier (tetanus and diphtheria toxoids) 11-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PncDT) in 20 Finnish adults (mean age 26.1 years) and 20 Finnish (mean age 23.2 months) and 23 Israeli (mean age 18.5 months) toddlers. The vaccinees had previously been immunised with multiple doses of vaccines...
