Motivating Factors in Completing Tetanus Immunization
… to find out the number of people who were given tetanus antitoxin who did and did not initiate and complete tetanus immunization and to find out why they did or did not do so. The subjects were patients from two hospitals who had been given tetanus antitoxin sometime between January 1, 1963, and …

Threatened child health through lack of immunization: Identification of risk groups in Uganda.
… the EPI vaccination series; and neonatal tetanus is still a major concern, since most fertile women in the third world are not covered with two doses of tetanus toxoid (TT). Main objectives. Using data of the 1988-89 Uganda Demographic and Health Survey (UDHS): (1) To assess risk factors …

IgG subclasses, specific antibodies and immunoglobulin allotypes in children with invasive Haemophilus influenzae type B and Staphylococcus aureus infections
… Staphylococcus aureus teichoic acid and tetanus toxoid. The relative affinity of antibodies in these ELISAs was determined by the incorporation of diethylamine (DEA). In order to determine the immunoglobulin allotypes ELISAs were developed to measure the G1m(f), G2m(n) and Km(3) …

The delivery of bioactive proteins using biodegradable microspheres
… The proteins used in this study were mainly BSA, tetanus toxoid, F1 and V, Y. pestis subunit vaccines and the cytokine, interferon-gamma. The polymer chosen for use in the vaccine preparation will directly determine the characteristics of the formulation. Full in vitro analysis of the preparations …

Development and characterization of novel transgenic techniques for the study of neuronal circuitry
… a mouse line that, through expression of the tetanus toxin light chain, allows long-term inhibition of neurotransmission in a small subset (<1%) of fluorescently labeled pyramidal cells. This model, which can be used to study how a silenced cell performs in a wildtype environment, greatly …

The effects of a high fat diet on musculoskeletal health in aged male C57BL/6J mice
… but this did not translate to greater twitch or tetanus peak force. The ratio of outcomes of bone to muscle declined in both the AGE and HFS-AGE groups as a result of a greater decline in key measures of bone structure (BV/TV) than muscle function (soleus and EDL peak tetanus and CSA) and was not …

Comparison of current evidence from randomized clinical trials and observational studies for immunogenicity in variable meningococcal C vaccine schedules in children, adolescents, and adults
… as 2 months of age. In nearly all schedules, tetanus toxid (TT) carrier vaccines were more immunogenic than their diphtheria toxin mutant 197 (CRM or CRM197) protein carrier equivalents. This was less pronounced with 3 doses in infancy, and by 12 months of age antibody titers waned similarly …
