[Purification of a corpuscular influenza vaccine by means of immunoaffinity chromatography].

Two immunoaffinity chromatographic methods for the purification of corpuscular influenza vaccine from the admixture of chick embryo components have been examined. The isolation of the virus on immobilized antiviral antibodies has proved to be unsuitable for preparative purposes. The method for the purification of the vaccine from ovalbumin with the use of immobilized anti-ovalbumin antibodies has proved to be highly effective. When introduced into guinea pigs in 3 injections, the vaccine purified by immunosorption has been found to produce no anaphylactic reactions.

[Analysis of the immunochemical purity of modern influenza vaccines].

Corpuscular influenza vaccines have been found to contain chick embryo antigens differing from ovalbumin in their antigenic, immunogenic, and allergenic properties. The study has revealed that host antigens are present in vaccines in the form of free contaminants and as substances incorporated into viruses. The vaccine prepared by the method of sorption-elution on red blood cells with subsequent gel chromatography is characterized by the highest antigenic purity.

[Immunobiological characteristics of impurities in corpuscular influenza vaccines].

Admixtures of free antigens have been shown to play the main role in the anaphylactogenic danger of vaccines. The immunogenic and anaphylactogenic action of such antigenic admixtures in corpuscular influenza vaccine can be observed after the immunization of animals in 2 or 3 injections. Host antigens incorporated into viral particles induce no anaphylactic reaction in guinea pigs after their immunization in 3 injections.

Anaphylaxis↗

[Sensitizing action of nonvirion admixtures in inactivated influenza vaccines in an experiment].

The side-effect of nonvirion admixtures in inactivated influenza vaccines has been experimentally studied. The minimal sensitizing dose of allantoic admixtures other than ovalbumin has been experimentally determined in vivo. This dose has proved to be 4 times higher than the sensitizing dose of ovalbumin. The presence of sharply defined correlations between the concentration of the admixtures contained in inactivated influenza vaccines, the titers of antibodies to these admixtures and the severity of anaphylactic reactions has been established in guinea pigs after their multiple immunization.
