Abstract
Objective: To understand the level of measles antibody in productive women in Hongkou district in Shanghai, to provide evidence for immunization strategy.
Methods: Using quantitative enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method to test the level of measles antibody IgG.
Results: Positive rate of measles antibody in productive women in Shanghai was 88.68%. The measles antibody's geometric mean concentration (GMC) was 814.73 IU/ml. Positive rate of measles antibody in floating productive women was 91.81%, and GMC was 1376.24 IU/ml. The positive rate of measles antibody decreased with age.
Conclusion: The productive women should be vaccinated against measles vaccine before pregnancy so as to improve the antibody level.
