Attenuation Methods for Live Vaccines

2020
Vaccination was developed by Edward Jenner in 1796. Since then, vaccination and vaccine development research has been a hotspot of research in the scientific community. Various ways of vaccine development are successfully employed in mass production of vaccines. One of the most successful ways to generate vaccines is the method of virulence attenuation

Live Attenuated Vaccine Vectors

International Journal of Technology Assessment in Health Care, 1994
AbstractSeveral different live attenuated vaccine vectors currently are under development. These vaccines are composed of living viruses or bacteria that are innocuous to the host but can replicate in host tissues and induce immune responses. The genes encoding foreign antigens can be inserted into these vectors to produce multivalent vaccines that ...

Live attenuated influenza vaccine

2008
The development of the live, attenuated influenza vaccine (LAIV), based on the cold-adapted (ca), attenuated ca A/Ann Arbor/6/60 and ca B/Ann Arbor/1/66 backbones, has spanned several decades. The vaccine contains three vaccine strains, two attenuated influenza A strains and one attenuated influenza B strain; these vaccine strains are genetic ...

Live attenuated anticoccidial vaccines for chickens

Trends in Parasitology, 2023
Chicken coccidiosis, caused by infection with single or multiple Eimeria species, results in significant economic losses to the global poultry industry. Over the past decades, considerable efforts have been made to generate attenuated Eimeria strains, and the use of live attenuated anticoccidial vaccines for disease prevention has achieved tremendous ...
