[Antibody response in humans to A/New Jersey/76 influenza vaccine (author's transl)]

74 adults 25 to 50 years old have been immunized with a sigle dose of three different influenza vaccines, namely: 1. Bivalent A and B (A/Victoria/75 600 IU; B/Hong Kong/73 300 IU); 2. Monovalent A/New Jersey/76 400 IU, and 3. Trivalent (A/Victoria/75 300 IU; B/Hong Kong/73 300 IU; A/New Jersey/76 300 IU). Reactions were insignificant or trivial. One month later antibody content was measured in the blood and satisfactory reponses were observed in bivalent and monovalent vaccines treated groups. Less satisfactory reponse was observed in the trivalent vaccine group, probably according to the lesser antigenic content in A/Victoria and A/New Jersey strains.
