VACCINES-
A detailed study on vaccines which are available now

2. VACCINES- a brief description
• A vaccine is a medical preparation given to provide immunity from a disease.
• Vaccines use a variety of different substances ranging from dead microorganisms to genetically
engineered antigens to defend the body against potentially harmful microorganisms.
• Effective vaccines change the immune system by promoting the development of antibodies that can
quickly and effectively attack disease-causing microorganisms when it enters the body, preventing disease
development.
• A vaccine may contain live-attenuated or killed microorganisms or parts or products from them capable of
stimulating a specific immune response comprised of protective antibodies and T cell immunity.
• A vaccine should stimulate a sufficient number of memory T and B lymphocytes to yield effector T cells
and antibody-producing B cells from memory cells.
• The viral vaccines should also be able to stimulate high titers of neutralizing antibodies.
• Injection of a vaccine into a nonimmune subject induces active immunity against the modified pathogens.
• Vaccination is immunization against infectious disease through the administration of vaccines for the
production of active (protective) immunity in humans or other animals.

3. • There are 4 main types of vaccines:
• Live Attenuated vaccines (LAV)
• Inactivated vaccines (Killed Antigen)
• Subunit and Conjugate Vaccines (Purified Antigen)
• Toxoid vaccines (Inactivated Toxins)
VACCINES

4. • LIVE VACCINES
• Vaccine (smallpox)
• Measles, mumps, rubella (MMR combined vaccine)
• Varicella (chickenpox)
• Influenza (nasal spray)
• Rotavirus
• Zoster (shingles)
• Yellow fever
• BCG vaccine
• Typhoid (oral)
• Polio (oral)
VACCINES

5. • KILLED / INACTIVE VACCINES
• Poliomyelitis (IPV)
• Hepatitis A
• Rabies
• Hepatitis B
• Influenza
• Diptheria toxoid
• Meningitis (ACWY)
• Pertussis
• Pneumonia
• Typhoid ( injectable)
• Tetanus toxoid
VACCINES

6. • Subunit and Conjugate Vaccines (Purified Antigen)
• Hepatitis B
• Influenza (injection)
• Haemophilus influenza type b (Hib)
• Pertussis (part of DTaP combined immunization)
• Pneumococcal
• Meningococcal
• Human papillomavirus (HPV)
• These subunit vaccines are composed of antigens
purified from microbes which are usually administered
with an adjuvant.
VACCINES

7. • Toxoid vaccines (Inactivated Toxins)
• Diphtheria , tetanus( part of DTaP combined immunization)
• (Toxoid vaccines use a toxin (harmful product) made by
the germ that causes a disease.
• They create immunity to the parts of the germ that
cause a disease instead of the germ itself.)
