Popis: The preclinical trial of a new cell-free pertussis vaccine has been carried out with a view to its comparison with whole-cell pertussis vaccine in respect of the toxic and protective properties of the preparations under experimental conditions. The whole-cell pertussis vaccine is characterized by pronounced toxic action causing leukocytosis and histamine-sensitization, produces a negative effect on the detoxifying function of the liver and possesses sensitizing activity. The cell-free pertussis vaccine has pronounced protective activity. In animal experiments the supposed immunization dose of this vaccine has proved to be nontoxic.
