1. Consist of: weakened or killed form of microbe (attenuated)
2. Mechanism
  1. 1- Detect the threat whether its a pathogen or a immunization
  2. 2- Components of innate immune system will respond to challenge
3. Types
  1. Inactivated
  2. Live attenuated
4. Administration
  1. Right site
  2. Right vaccine
  3. Right dose
  4. Right route
  5. Right person
Vaccines
1. Side effects
  1. Pain, swelling & redness
  2. Shivering
  3. Fatigue
  4. Headache
  5. Fever

      1. Blood test
      2. Chest x-ray
      3. Nose or throat culture
    3. Symptoms
      1. Runny nose or nasal congestion
      2. Cough
      3. Vomiting
      4. Fever & fatigue

  2. Natural = Maternal transfer
2. Active (Humoral)
  1. Natural = upon infection
  2. Artificial = active immunization

  1. Neutrophils
    1. Acute inflammation
  2. Basophils
    1. Parasite infections & releases histamine
  3. Monocytes
    1. Chronic inflammation
  4. Lymphocytes
    1. Immune reponse
      1. B cells
      2. T cells
  5. Eosinophils
    1. Allergies
Antibodies
1. Ig A
2. Ig G
3. Ig D
4. Ig E
5. Ig M
6. Direct actions
  1. Agglutination
  2. Precipitation
  3. Lysis
  4. Neutralization
Interaction of immune system and microorganism
1. Active mechanism
  1. Immunosuppression
  2. Blocks normal function of immune cells
2. Passive mechanism
  1. Latency
  2. Genomic integration
  3. Antigenic variation
3. Affects

  2. Live vaccines
  3. Immune disorders
  4. Allograft rejection
HERD Immunity
1. a form of immunity that occurs when the vaccination of a significant portion of a population (or herd) provides a measure of protection for individuals who have not developed immunity.
