Definition
▪It may bedefined as a process of protecting an
individual from a disease through introduction of
live or killed or attenuated organism in the
individual body. Immunization against disease
helps to reduce the child morbidity, mortality and
handicapped conditions.

•Immunization is theprocess by which
individual develop immunity after vaccination.
•Vaccination is the process in which we are
giving vaccine to individual.

▪WHO launched globalimmunization programme
in 1974 also known as Expanded Programme on
Immunization (EPI) to protect the children from 6
killer disease. (BCG, DPT, Polio, Measles)
▪In India EPI was launched in January 1978.

Immunity
▪Immunity is concernedwith reaction of
body against any foreign antigen.
▪It is the capacity of the human body to
resist and destroy the invading organisms or
toxins.
7.
Vaccine
•Vaccine is immunebiological substance design
to produce specific protection against particular
disease.
❑An ideal vaccine:
➢Should not be toxic.
➢Should not cause problem
➢Should not contaminated the environment
➢Should be cost effective
Live Attenuated Vaccine
▪Attenuation: Removing pathogenic structure
of microbes.
▪Use live microbes in vaccine.
▪These are more immunogenic and less
reactogenic.
▪Need strict cold chain.
▪Should not given to immune compromised
child.

13.
Toxoids
▪Certain organism likediphtheria bacilli and
tetanus bacilli produce exotoxins which are
detoxicated and used in preparation of vaccine.
▪Toxigenicity is removed by the application of
moderate heat and some chemical treatment
such as formalin for this 0.3% formalin are used.
▪Examples : Diphtheria toxoid and Tetanus
toxoid
14.
Combination vaccine
▪If morethan one kind of immunizing agent
is included in the vaccine it is called as
combination vaccine.
▪Examples : DPT, MMR, Pentavalent etc.
