Comparative Assessment of the Whole-cell Pertussis Vaccine Potency Using Serological and Intracerebral Mouse Protection Methods [PDF]
One of the most important QC tests of whole-cell pertussis vaccine (WCPV) is potency test. In this regard, mouse protection test (MPT) is the current potency method, which is associated with severe animal distress and large variability in results.
