IMMUNOGENICITY OF RUBELLA VACCINE OF MEASLES AND RUBELLA COMBINED VACCINE (MRVAC) MANUFACTERING BY POLYVAC
Main Article Content
Abstract
Objectives: To assess immunogenicity of rubella vaccine of MRVAC vaccine. Subjects and method: Randomized, controlled and single-blind clinical trial study was conducted on 756 people aged 1 to 45 years old in Ha Nam and Hoa Binh provinces, measured rubella antibody titre by EIA technique, analysed indexes to evaluate immunogenicity. Results and conclusion: in negative antibody group, post-vaccination seroconversion rate was from 98.4% to 99.3%, MRVAC post-vaccination geometric mean titre (GMT) was 32.00 EIA unit, significantly lower than control vaccine. In possitiveantibody group, MRVAC post-vaccination GMT was 49.87 EIA units, equivalent to pre-vaccination and control vaccine.
