Adjuvanted influenza vaccines [PDF]
The search for adjuvants has been stimulated by the need to ensure greater protection against influenza among subjects who show a reduced immune response to conventional influenza vaccines. Aluminum salts have long been used but are not considered satisfactory.

Cell culture-derived flu vaccine: Present and future
The benefit of influenza vaccines is difficult to estimate due to the complexity of accurately assessing the burden of influenza. To improve the efficacy of influenza vaccines, vaccine manufacturers have developed quadrivalent influenza vaccine (QIV ...

Recombinant Influenza Vaccines [PDF]
This review covers the problems encountered in the construction and production of new recombinant influenza vaccines. New approaches to the development of influenza vaccines are investigated; they include reverse genetics methods, production of virus-like particles, and DNA- and viral vector-based vaccines.

A Novel Sequence-Based Antigenic Distance Measure for H1N1, with Application to Vaccine Effectiveness and the Selection of Vaccine Strains [PDF]
H1N1 influenza causes substantial seasonal illness and was the subtype of the 2009 influenza pandemic. Precise measures of antigenic distance between the vaccine and circulating virus strains help researchers design influenza vaccines with high vaccine ...

The association between life events, social support, and antibody status following thymus-dependent and thymus-independent vaccinations in healthy young adults [PDF]
This study determined whether stressful life events and social support were related to antibody status following both thymus-dependent and thymus-independent vaccinations. Life events in the previous year and customary social support were measured in 57
