Protein Antigens Increase the Protective Efficacy of a Capsule-Based Vaccine against Staphylococcus aureus in a Rat Model of Osteomyelitis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Staphylococcus aureus is an invasive bacterial pathogen, and antibiotic resistance has impeded adequate control of infections caused by this microbe. Moreover, efforts to prevent human infections with single-component S. aureus vaccines have failed.

A review of complement sources used in serum bactericidal assays for evaluating immune responses to meningococcal ACWY conjugate vaccines

open access: yesHuman Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics, 2019
Invasive meningococcal disease is rare and potentially devastating but often vaccine-preventable. Evaluation of meningococcal vaccine effectiveness is impractical owing to relatively low disease incidence; protection is therefore estimated using serum ...

Relationship between immune response to pneumococcal conjugate vaccines in infants and indirect protection after vaccine implementation

open access: yesExpert Review of Vaccines, 2019
Introduction: Streptococcus pneumoniae is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Widespread infant vaccination with pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs) substantially reduced vaccine-serotype pneumococcal disease by direct protection of ...
