vaccine

Definition of vaccine in English English dictionary: A substance given to stimulate the body's production of antibodies and provide immunity against a disease, prepared from the agent that causes the disease, or a synthetic substitute; {n} the cow-pox, kine-pox; {a} denoting the cow-pox; Utilization of a killed or debilitated organism or a part of its contents that is capable of inducing protection against the disease caused by that organism; a preparation used for the prevention of an infectious disease It stimulates an immune response in the body (active immunisation) in order to prevent future infection by a similar micro-organism; A product of weakened or killed microorganism (bacterium or virus) that stimulates an immune response that can prevent an infection or create resistance to an infection; A preparation that stimulates an immune response that can prevent an infection or create resistance to an infection; A medication that stimulates the production of antibodies to protect against a specific disease There is a hepatitis A vaccine, a hepatitis B vaccine, and a combination vaccine that provides protection against both hepatitis A and B at the same time; Material used to induce specific protective immunity against a pathogen; A substance given to stimulate the bodys production of antibodies and provide immunity against a disease, prepared from the agent that causes the disease, or a synthetic substitute; a preparation of killed microorganisms, living attenuated organisms, or living fully virulent organisms that is administered to produce or artificially increase immunity to a particular disease; A preparation of weakened or killed microorganisms (or parts or products of them) used to produce immunity to a particular disease; A vaccine is a substance containing a harmless form of the germs that cause a particular disease. It is given to people, usually by injection, to prevent them getting that disease. Anti-malarial vaccines are now undergoing trials Seven million doses of vaccine are annually given to British children. a substance which contains a weak form of the bacteria or virus that causes a disease and is used to protect people from that disease (vaccinus , from vacca ; because the substance was originally obtained from sick cows). Preparation containing either killed or weakened live microorganisms or their toxins, introduced by mouth, by injection, or by nasal spray to stimulate production of antibodies against an infectious agent. This confers immunity to that agent, since the B lymphocytes remain sensitized to it and respond to later infection by producing more antibodies. The first vaccine, against smallpox, was introduced by Edward Jenner in 1798. Vaccines have been developed against diseases caused by bacteria (e.g., typhoid, whooping cough, tuberculosis) and by viruses (e.g., measles, influenza, rabies, poliomyelitis). Effectiveness varies, and a small percentage of people have adverse reactions. Those with immunodeficiency disorders should not receive live vaccines; {i} solution of weakened or modified pathogen cells which is injected into the body in order to stimulate the production of antibodies to a disease, inoculation; (Computers) program that is designed to protect against computer viruses; an immunogen consisting of an attenuated or killed microorganism, administered to induce the immune system to produce antibodies to fight an infectious disease; Immunobiological substance used for active immunization by introducing into the body a live modified, attenuated, or killed inactivated infectious organisms or its toxin The vaccine is capable of stimulating immune response by the host, who is thus rendered resistant to infection The word vaccine was originally applied to the serum from a cow infected with vaccinia virus; it is now used of all immunizing agents; immunogen consisting of a suspension of weakened or dead pathogenic cells injected in order to stimulate the production of antibodies; A substance that contains recombinant antigen or weakened or killed infectious organisms A vaccine provides long-term immunity against a pathogen by producing an acquired immune response giving rise to memory cells without causing disease See Immunization; Of or pertaining to cows; pertaining to, derived from, or caused by, vaccinia; as, vaccine virus; the vaccine disease; A preparation that contains an antigen made up of disease-causing organisms in a dead or weakened state It is used to boost immunity against the given diseases, and can be created using the recombinant DNA process; A substance, a small amount of a dead or weakened disease-causing agent, which is administered to a person, usually by injection, which protects that person from infection by a particular microbe If the person comes in contact with that pathogen, the body then fights it off easily and can protect against this disease in the future This protection is called immunity; {s} of or pertaining to vaccine; of or pertaining to vaccinia; derived from cows; A preparation made from killed or weakened pathogens which when introduced in the body induce the production of antibodies and thus boost the body's immunity against that pathogen; A substance containing antigenic components from an infectious organism By stimulating an immune response, it protects against subsequent infection by that organism; A substance that contains antigenic components from an infectious organism By stimulating an immune response (but not disease), it protects against subsequent infection by that organism; a preparation that contains an infectious agent or its components which is administered to stimulate an immune response that will protect a person from illness due to that agent A therapeutic (treatment) vaccine is given after infection and is intended to reduce or arrest disease progression A preventive (prophylactic) vaccine is intended to prevent initial infection Agents used in vaccines may be whole-killed (inactive), live-attenuated (weakened) or artificially manufactured; Immunogenic material capable of stimulating active immunity or, in the case of DNA vaccines, of directing the synthesis of proteins that stimulate immunity Vaccines may elicit both prophylactic (preventative) and therapeutic responses; an antigenic preparation used to produce active immunity to a disease to prevent or ameliorate the effects of infection with the natural or "wild" organism Vaccines may be living, attenuated strains of viruses or bacteria which give rise to inapparent to trivial infections Vaccines may also be killed or inactivated organisms or purified products derived from them Formalin-inactivated toxins are used as vaccines against diphtheria and tetanus Synthetically or genetically engineered antigens are currently being developed for use as vaccines Some vaccines are effective by mouth, but most have to be given parenterally 1, 43; The virus of vaccinia used in vaccination; A preparation of dead or weakened pathogen, or substances derived from it, that is used to induce protective immunity against subsequent infection by the same pathogen; A product of weakened or killed microorganism (bacterium or virus) given for the prevention or treatment of infectious diseases; A shot that helps your body build protection against disease

bcg vaccine: Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) is a vaccine against tuberculosis that is prepared from a strain of the attenuated (weakened) live bovine tuberculosis bacillus, Mycobacterium bovis, that has lost its virulence in humans by being specially cultured in an artificial medium for years. The bacilli have retained enough strong antigenicity to become a somewhat effective vaccine for the prevention of human tuberculosis. At best, the BCG vaccine is 80 ffective in preventing tuberculosis for a duration of 15 years, however, its protective effect appears to vary according to geography
flu vaccine: The flu vaccine is a vaccine to protect against the highly variable influenza virus
influenza vaccine: The influenza vaccine is a vaccine to protect against the highly variable influenza virus
