DIPHTHERIA AS A SYSTEMIC DISEASE: ANALYSIS OF COMPLICATIONS ASSOCIATED WITH DIPHTHERIA TOXIN

Diphtheria is a contagious disease caused by the bacteria Corynebacterium diphtheriae. This disease, although morbidity has significantly decreased in developed nations thanks to immunizations, continues to provide a substantial health risk in areas with

Induction of neutralizing antibodies against diphtheria toxin by priming with recombinant Mycobacterium bovis BCG expressing CRM197, a mutant diphtheria toxin

, 2001
International audienceBCG, the attenuated strain of Mycobacterium bovis, has been widely used as a vaccine against tuberculosis and is thus an important candidate as a live carrier for multiple antigens. With the aim of developing a recombinant BCG (rBCG)
