BACTERIAL VACCINE
INTRODUCTION
• There are two types of immunization:-
 Active immunity:- is induced by vaccines prepared from
bacteria or their products
– Methods of acquisition include natural infection, vaccines (many
types), and toxoids
– Relatively permanent
 Passive immunity :- is provided by the administration of
preformed antibody in preparations called immune –globulins
– Methods of acquisition include natural maternal antibodies,
antitoxins, and immune globulins
– Protection transferred from another person or animal
VACCINATION
• Vaccine is a biological preparation that provides
artificial active immunity to a particular disease
• The administration of vaccines is called vaccination
• It can be used as
 prophylactic:- to ameliorate the effect of future
infection
 therapeutic:- e.g to treat disease vaccine against
cancer
Development of Vaccines
• Multiple factors affect
decisions when making
vaccines
 Activation of specific branch of
immune system
 Development of
immunological memory
Role of Memory Cells
• Depends on incubation period of pathogen
– Short Incubation Periods
• ex. Influenza
• Symptoms already under way by the time memory cells are
activated
• Repeated immunizations with neutralizing antibodies
– Long Incubation Periods
• ex. Poliovirus
• Enough time to allow memory B cells to respond

TYPES OF BACTERIAL VACCINES
Types of Vaccines
• Whole-Organism
– Attenuated Viral/Bacterial
– Inactivated Viral/Bacterial
• Purified Macromolecules
– Polysaccharide
– Toxoid
– Recombinant Antigen
– Recombinant-Vector
• DNA
• Synthetic Peptide
• Multivalent Subunit
Attenuated Bacterial Vaccines
• Attenuation – to reduce in force, value, amount, or degree; weaken
– Achieved by growth under abnormal culture conditions
– Include Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG),thyphoid vaccine ,MMR vaccine ,oral
polio virus vaccine
– Act as a double edged sword, as they have distinct advantages and
disadvantages…
 Advantages:-
 Advantages stem from their capacity for transient growth
 Prolonged immune-system exposure
 Single immunizations
 Replication within host cells
KILLED BACTERIAL VACCINES:
• Methods of inactivation include heat or chemical agents
– End result…. Loss of replication ability
• Difficult to inactivate due to potential for denaturation of
epitopes
– Dependence on higher order levels of protein structure
• (1) Vibrio cholerae vaccine
– contains killed organisms and is given to persons traveling
to areas where cholera is endemic.
• (2) Yersinia pestis vaccine
– contains killed organisms and is indicated for persons at
high risk for contracting plague.
• (3) The vaccine against typhus
– contains killed Rickettsia rickettsiae organisms and is used
primarily to immunize members of the armed forces.
PURIFIED PROTEIN VACCINES
• 1) There are two types of B. pertussis
vaccines:
• an acellular vaccine containing purified
proteins
• a vaccine containing whole killed bacteria.
• The principal antigen in the acellular vaccine is
(pertussis toxoid), but other proteins, such as
filamentous hemagglutinin and pertactin, are
also required for full protection.
Toxoid Vaccines
• Toxoid vaccines are made
from inactivated toxic
compounds that cause
illness rather than the
micro-organism
• . Examples of toxoid-based
vaccines include tetanus
and diphtheria.
• Toxoid vaccines are known
for their efficacy
. CAPSULAR POLYSACCHARIDE
VACCINES
• Protein subunit – a fragment of bacteria rather than
whole organism can create an immune response.
• Examples include:-
 The subunit vaccine against Hepatitis B virus that is
composed of only the surface proteins of the virus and
 The virus-like particle (VLP) vaccine against human
papillomavirus (HPV) that is composed of the viral
major capsid protein,
 The hemagglutinin and neuraminidase subunits of the
influenza virus.
 Subunit vaccine is being used for plague immunization.
