Comparative analysis of the intracerebral mouse protection test and serological method for potency assays of pertussis component in DTP vaccine
نویسندگان
چکیده
The aim of this study was to compare the PSPT standardized in-house as an alternative to MPT for potency assays of pertussis component. Statistical analyses have showed similar pertussis potency values when PSPT was compared to MPT. Significant correlation between the potency results obtained by in vivo and in vitro assays was also been observed. Results by PSPT have demonstrated reproducibility and accuracy for potency pertussis control and this approach has been considered promising for use at least during the steps of production.

Comparative Assessment of the Whole-cell Pertussis Vaccine Potency Using Serological and Intracerebral Mouse Protection Methods
One of the most important QC tests of whole-cell pertussis vaccine (WCPV) is potency test. In this regard, mouse protection test (MPT) is the current potency method, which is associated with severe animal distress and large variability in results. The purpose of this study was to assess Pertussis Serological Potency Test (PSPT) as a serological alternative method to intracerebral challenge in M...
متن کاملPertussis Serological Potency Test as an Alternative to the Intracerebral Mouse Protection Test: Development, Evaluation and Validation.
We have developed the Pertussis Serological Potency Test (PSPT) as an alternative to potency testing of pertussis Whole Cell Vaccines (WCV) in the intracerebral Mouse Protection Test (MPT). The PSPT is based on the humoral antibody response against the whole range of B. pertussis surface-antigens per vaccine dose and correlates well with the MPT. WCV-induced-antibody responses against "protecti...
متن کاملEvaluation of two serological methods for potency testing of whole cell pertussis vaccines.
The European Pharmacopoeia (Ph. Eur.) and the World Health Organization (WHO) require the performance of extensive quality control testing including a potency test before a vaccine batch is released for human use. Whole cell pertussis (wP) vaccine potency is assessed by a mouse protection test (MPT) based on the Kendrick test. This test compares the vaccine dose necessary to protect 50% of mice...
متن کاملFast, antigen-saving multiplex immunoassay to determine levels and avidity of mouse serum antibodies to pertussis, diphtheria, and tetanus antigens.
To enhance preclinical evaluation of serological immune responses to the individual diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis (DTP) components of DTP combination vaccines, a fast hexavalent bead-based method was developed. This multiplex immunoassay (MIA) can simultaneously determine levels of specific mouse serum IgG antibodies to P antigens P.69 pertactin (P.69 Prn), filamentous hemagglutinin (FHA),...
