Effective Vaccines
• Have low levels of side effects or toxicity.• Protect against exposure to natural, or wild
forms of the pathogen.• Should stimulate both an antibody (B-cell)
response and a cell mediated (T-cell) response.• Have long term, lasting effects that produce
immunological memory.• Should not require numerous doses or boosters• Are inexpensive, have a long shelf life and are
easy to administer.

Routes of Administration
• The majority of vaccines are administered by injection– Subcutaneous– Intramuscular– Intradermal
• Oral vaccines are available for only a few diseases

Administration Routes

Live, attenuated (weakened) cells (viruses)
– Vaccines are longer-lasting and require fewer boosters
– However, the disease agent could mutate back to pathogenic strain
– Harder to make this type for bacteria – usu. viruses
– Example: MMR, Varicella zoster

Killed whole cells or inactivated viruses
– Even though they are harmless, they still contain recognizable antigens on their surface
– Because the microbe does not multiply, a weaker immune response is stimulated vs. live vaccines
– larger doses and more boosters are required.
– Example:Polio virus

Toxoid vaccines
– A purified toxin produced by the antigen is used to elicit immune response.
– Example: DTaP• Diptheria,
Tetanus and acellular Pertussis

Subunit Vaccines
• Subunit vaccines contain just the antigens of the microbe that best stimulate the immune system.
• Antigens that have been separated from the rest of the microbe
• Examples: Hepatitis B, Gardasil, Influenza

Genetically engineered microbes or microbial antigens
– Genes for microbial antigens are inserted into a plasmid vector and are cloned in appropriate hosts.
– The resultant protein product is used to provoke immune system.

DNA vaccines– These
vaccines contain all or part of the pathogen DNA, which is used to “infect” a recipient’s cells.

Herd Immunity• More individuals that are
immune decreases the incidence of the disease and the occurrence of the pathogen.
• With greater numbers immunized, it is less likely that an unimmunized person will encounter the pathogen.
• Mass vaccination confers indirect protection for those who do not receive the vaccine resulting in “herd immunity”.
