Immune response to two different hepatitis B vaccines in haemodialysis patients: a 2-year follow-up.
Nephron, 1985Formalin-inactivated hepatitis B vaccine was given at 0, 1 and 6 months to 22 medical staff members and to 37 haemodialysis patients. After vaccination with 20 micrograms surface antigen (HBsAg), seroconversion occurred in 95% of the staff members ...

The first results of active immunization against hepatitis B in humans were reported a little over 10 years ago (Maupas et al., 1976). Since then, several serum-derived hepatitis B (HB) vaccines have been proved safe, highly immunogenic and efficacious in various populations at risk (Stevens et al., 1984).

Clinics in Liver Disease, 1999
On a global basis, the hepatitis B virus (HBV) is the most important vaccine-preventable liver disease. As a consequence, the development of vaccines for the prevention of HBV represents one of the major achievements of modern medicine. 34 Universal immunization against HBV has been adopted in over 80 countries.
