haemorrhagic septicaemia (hs) vaccine which is prepared in razi institute is used in endemic areas ofiran. aluminum-hydroxide gel was used as adjuvant for preparing this vaccine. post-vaccinal shock reactionswere the main complaint after use of this vaccine. in a previous study, we could improve the vaccine byalum-precipitation pasteurella multocida cells and removing the liquid phase. in this ...

In an examination of 34 southern African SAT-type foot-and-mouth disease viruses, all but 1 attained satisfactory levels of infectivity within 6 passages in rolled BHK21 monolayer cell cultures. However, there were marked differences between adapted viruses with respect to the mass of immunogen (146S material) produced. Several isolates which consistently produced levels greater than or equal t...

Characteristic vaccinal and herpetic lesions, including Guarnieri bodies and acidophilic nuclear inclusions respectively, regularly occur in rabbit corneas infected and cultivated in vitro according to the method here described.

Passively administered anti-tumor monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) rapidly kill tumor targets via FcγR-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC), a short-term process. However, anti-tumor mAb treatment can also induce a vaccinal effect, in which mAb-mediated tumor death induces a long-term anti-tumor cellular immune response. To determine how such responses are generated, we utilized a murine model of an anti-t...

Case presentation: Male, 9 years old, healthy, after a dental procedure, he started with clonic seizures on the left side and an episode of tonic-clonic seizure. In evolution patient developed Epilepsia Partialis Continua (EPC) at side. Liquor investigation was positive to herpes virus despite acyclovir treatment for 21 days persisted seizures. Resonance image demonstrated atrophic lesion front...

Postencephalitic parkinsonism has been considered unique among disorders with parkinsonian features because it is believed to have a unitary etiology associated with the virus that presumably caused encephalitis lethargica. Careful analysis of the historical record, however, suggests that this relationship is more complex than commonly perceived. In most cases, the diagnosis of acute encephalit...
