New cholera vaccines

Vaccine, 1989
Development of improved cholera vaccines has progressed rapidly in recent years. An oral killed vaccine, designed to evoke antibacterial as well as antitoxic intestinal immunity, has proved to be completely safe and to protect against cholera for at least 3 years.

Cholera Vaccines

1992
The currently licensed parenteral cholera vaccine has not been a useful public health tool in the control of cholera. Building on the knowledge that primary infection offers significant protection against reinfection and that mucosal immunity mediates this protection, several oral cholera vaccines have been developed. These vaccine candidates or future

Vibrio cholerae Vaccines

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1989
Several approaches to the development of a safe and effective vaccine against Vibrio cholerae are currently being pursued. These candidate vaccines include (1) live V. cholerae strains attenuated by recombinant DNA techniques; (2) killed whole V. cholerae organisms plus purified cholera enterotoxin B subunit; and (3) cloned V.

Stability of cholera and typhoid vaccines

Journal of Biological Standardization, 1979
Fluid plain and adsorbed and freeze-dried cholera and tyhpoid vaccines of different composition were examined for thermostability by potency testing (by active mouse protection tests) after exposure to 37 degrees C for 1, 2, 3, 4, 8 and 12 weeks. Loss of potency was evaluated by comparison with samples stored at 4 degrees C.

Assay of cholera vaccine potency

Journal of Biological Standardization, 1977
The Feeley-Pittman active mouse protection test was examined as a method of estimating the potency of cholera vaccines in the laboratory before their administration in the field. With strict standardization of conditions, it was found to give reproducible estimates both within and between laboratories.

Cholera vaccines for the developing world

Human Vaccines, 2008
Cholera remains as a global public health threat affecting most of the developing world. In endemic areas, young children are most affected. Outbreaks are reported increasingly from more countries. Improvements in water and sanitation may be the mainstays of cholera prevention but in the short term, vaccines provide an alternative in cholera control ...
