Abstract

In the controlled epidemiological trial the reactogenic and immunogenic properties of live measles vaccine (LMV) and live parotitis vaccine (LPV) were evaluated in identical groups of children immunized in accordance with different schedules: only LMV or LPV, the injection of these preparations mixed in one syringe or with the use of separate syringes, or at an interval of 3 months. The highest number of febrile reactions, rash and catarrhal symptoms was registered among children immunized with LMV, and the lowest number of such reactions in the groups of children immunized with LPV. The injection of LMV and LPV with one syringe or simultaneously with separate syringes decreased the intensity of immune response to the injection of the antigens. Immunization against measles and parotitis by the injection of monopreparations at an interval of 3 months is believed to be most expedient.

Acute viral rhinopharyngitis

Acute viral rhinopharyngitis, also known as "common cold", is an acute, self-limiting viral infection of the upper respiratory tract involving the nose, sinuses, pharynx and larynx. Discover the latest research on acute viral rhinopharyngitis here.

Antibody Specificity

Antibodies produced by B cells are highly specific for antigen as a result of random gene recombination and somatic hypermutation and affinity maturation. As the main effector of the humoral immune system, antibodies can neutralize foreign cells. Find the latest research on antibody specificity here.
