Immunity to diphtheria in a sample of adult population from central Italy
A sample of 643 healthy subjects from central Italy aged 20 to 80, were screened for diphtheria antitoxin. Serum diphtheria antitoxin was assayed by a new passive haemagglutination technique using turkey red blood cells sensitized with diphtheria toxoid,

Diphtheria anti-toxoid antibody levels among pre-clinical students and staff in an institute of higher learning in Malaysia: are they protected? [PDF]
Introduction: Little is known about the sero-prevalence of diphtheria anti-toxoid antibody levels among medical students in Malaysia. They too, just like other health care workers (HCWs) are at risk of contracting and transmitting diphtheria. Fortunately,
