Passive Immunity and Antibody Response Induced by Toxoplasma gondii VLP Immunization
Vaccines, 2021 Passive immunity can provide immediate protection against infectious pathogens. To date, only a few studies have investigated the effect of passive immunization against Toxoplasma gondii, and the use of immune sera acquired from VLP-vaccinated mice for ...

Duration of Passive Immunity Part IV [PDF]
Journal of Hygiene, 1922 1. There is some evidence that an injection of 0·00001 c.c. of horse serum causes an appreciable degree of active immunity to horse serum in rabbits.2. Rabbits actively immune to horse serum receiving a series of injections of antitoxic horse serum at intervals of three to ten weeks eliminated the antitoxin at rapidly increasing rates.3. An intravenous

Passive Immunity to Poliomyelitis in the Chimpanzee [PDF]
The Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease, 1945 A series of 6 chimpanzees was inoculated orally with stool from a poliomyelitis patient. Three of these animals had been given 170 cc. of homologous, hyperimmune monkey serum prior to inoculation, while three were unprotected. All 6 of the animals were subsequently shown to have poliomyelitis virus in their stools and ...

The biophysical principles underpinning muco-trapping functions of antibodies
Human Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics, 2022 In addition to the classical immunological functions such as neutralization, antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity, and complement activation, IgG antibodies possess a little-recognized and under-utilized effector function at mucosal surfaces ...

Using Monoclonal Antibodies to Prevent Mucosal Transmission of Epidemic Infectious Diseases
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 1999 Passive immunization with antibodies has been shown to prevent a wide variety of diseases. Recent advances in monoclonal antibody technology are enabling the development of new methods for passive immunization of mucosal surfaces.

Immunization against multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii effectively protects mice in both pneumonia and sepsis models. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 OBJECTIVE: Acinetobacter baumannii is considered the prototypical example of a multi- or pan- drug-resistant bacterium. It has been increasingly implicated as a major cause of nosocomial and community-associated infections.
