Characterisation of tetanus monoclonal antibodies as a first step towards the development of an in vitro vaccine potency immunoassay.

in these products is of utmost importance for product safety and clinical effect. Immunochemical methods that measure consistency of antigen content and quality, potentially as an indicator of potency, ...

Characterisation of diphtheria monoclonal antibodies as a first step towards the development of an in vitro vaccine potency immunoassay.

a cell-based toxin neutralisation test and diphtheria toxin-domain recognition was determined by Western blotting. In addition, antibody affinity was measured, and epitope competition analysis was performed to ...

Improved immunogenicity and protective efficacy of a tuberculosis DNA vaccine encoding Ag85 by protein boosting.

Finally, protein boosting increased the protective efficacy of the DNA vaccine against an intravenous M. tuberculosis H37R v challenge infection, as measured by CFU or relative light unit counts in lungs ...

Tuberculosis DNA vaccine encoding Ag85A is immunogenic and protective when administered by intramuscular needle injection but not by epidermal gene gun bombardment.

M. tuberculosis challenge, as measured by reduced numbers of CFU in spleen and lungs, compared to animals vaccinated with control DNA. Gene gun immunization was not effective in either BALB /c or C57BL ...

Cloning of the gene encoding a 22-kilodalton cell surface antigen of Mycobacterium bovis BCG and analysis of its potential for DNA vaccination against tuberculosis.

measured by interleukin-2 and gamma interferon secretion, was only modest, and no protection against intravenous M. tuberculosis challenge was observed in any of the three mouse strains tested. Therefore, ...

Differences in Antigenic Structure of Inactivated Polio Vaccines Made From Sabin Live-Attenuated and Wild-Type Poliovirus Strains: Impact on Vaccine Potency Assays.

relationship between antigenicity and immunogenicity of sIPV is not well understood. METHODS: A collaborative study was conducted in which laboratories used different methods to measure the antigen content of ...
