Determinants of neonatal mortality in rural India, 2007-2008. [PDF]
Background. Despite the growing share of neonatal mortality in under-5 mortality in the recent decades in India, most studies have focused on infant and child mortality putting neonatal mortality on the back seat.

Tetanus Toxoid in Prophylaxis against Tetanus
Ramon1 proposed the use of tetanus toxoid (anatoxin) for immunization against tetanus. He prepared the toxoid by adding from 3 to 4 cc. of formaldehyde to a liter of tetanus toxin, and then placing the mixture in an incubator at 37 C. for four weeks. In this manner he detoxified toxin that would kill a 300 Gm. guinea-pig in a dose of 0.0001 cc, so that

The monoclonal antibody 26 raised against tetanus toxoid also recognizes tetanus toxin and b2-glycoprotein I – its binding properties in vitro and potential applications [PDF]
A murine monoclonal IgG1 antibody, marked as MAb26, specific for tetanus toxoid has been immunochemically characterized. By performing enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) and western blot analyses, it was demonstrated that MAb26 reacted with ...
