Abstract
Summary
The immunological potency of a subunit influenza vaccine (from A/England/42/72 virus) and of two commercial whole-virus vaccines (containing either A/England/42/72 or A/Hong Kong/68 virus) was studied in adults in an industrial plant. Serum samples were taken in vaccinated and control non-vaccinated subjects prior to and three weeks and five months after the vaccination. Most of the vaccinees developed high levels of hemagglutination inhibiting antibodies against all the type A influenza viruses employed in the test; these antigens included a new strain (A/Dunedin/73) that had not previously circulated in Czechoslovakia. The antibody response after the subunit vaccine was somewhat better than after the whole-virus vaccines administration. The whole-virus vaccine from the A/England/42/72 virus was more efficient in inducing antibody response against the more recent isolates than the A/Hong Kong/68 virus vaccine.
期刊介绍：
Archives of Virology publishes original contributions from all branches of research on viruses, virus-like agents, and virus infections of humans, animals, plants, insects, and bacteria. Coverage spans a broad spectrum of topics, from descriptions of newly discovered viruses, to studies of virus structure, composition, and genetics, to studies of virus interactions with host cells, organisms and populations. Studies employ molecular biologic, molecular genetics, and current immunologic and epidemiologic approaches. Contents include studies on the molecular pathogenesis, pathophysiology, and genetics of virus infections in individual hosts, and studies on the molecular epidemiology of virus infections in populations. Also included are studies involving applied research such as diagnostic technology development, monoclonal antibody panel development, vaccine development, and antiviral drug development.Archives of Virology wishes to publish obituaries of recently deceased well-known virologists and leading figures in virology.
