As the increasing shortage of monkeys is a reality, the application of an alternative cell substrate for large-scale production of Killed Poliomyelitis Vaccine (KPV) was studied. Through progress of scientific knowledge the non-tumorigenic VERO cell…
This paper contains a summary of the principles upon which the preparation and use of killed poliovirus vaccine (KPV) are based, as well as a summary of earlier and more recent work suggesting the feasibility of formulating a KPV preparation that wou…
Benefit/risk factors in immunization against poliomyelitis are examined from the viewpoint of the relative risk and efficacy of killed and live poliovirus vaccines in the currently changing contexts of poliomyelitis prevalence in developed and develo…
