Please be sure to mention:
The pathogen targeted
The disease(s) implicated
If a vaccine has been developed or is being developed, what kind of vaccine is it (live attenuated, toxoid, etc.)? Does it contain an adjuvant? Are boosters required? Any safety issues?
Why the development of an effective vaccine has been difficult or impossible
For children two doses of the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine and five does of the diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis (DTaP) vaccine are given over a four-year period. Discuss why the DTaP vaccine requires so many doses.

- Four patients were diagnosed with "Pyrexia/fever of unknown origin." Their serum samples were sent to the laboratory to be tested against Typhoid Ag. Draw and design the steps taken to conduct the quantitative agglutination test seen in the image below. Provide your interpretation of the results. Note that paired sera was collected for patient 1,2 and 3. However, patient 4 was lost to follow up.arrow_forwardRewrite the following sentences after correction: 1. The N1303k mutation in the CFTR gene of CF patients is autosomal dominant disorder due to insertion of asparagine at 1303. 2. If a person RBCs have B surface antigen and it will clump with antigen B such clumping indicates blood type B. 3. Indirect ELISA can detect polygenic gene expression.arrow_forwardA subcutaneous nodule is found in the skin overlying the bregma of a newborn boy. It is a 2 cm in diameter, asymptomatic, rubbery mass that is nonpulsatile, noncompressible, not tender, and appears tinged with blue. The skin overlying the cyst appears normal. The mass is removed and found to include hair follicles, sweat glands, hair, teeth, and nerves. Which one of the following best describes the embryological origin of the mass? a. Endoderm b.

- A 3-day-postpartum client questions why she is to receive the rubella vaccine beforeleaving the hospital. Which of the following rationales should guide the nurse’s response?1. The client’s obstetric status is optimal for receiving the vaccine.2. The client’s immune system is highly responsive during the postpartum period.3. The client’s baby will be high risk for acquiring rubella if the woman does not receive the vaccine.4. The client’s insurance company will pay for the shot if it is given during the immediate postpartum period.arrow_forwardA 40 year old woman goes to see a physician to get a painful lump in her breast checked out. She tells the doctor that the lump persists for the full menstrual cycle, and a mammogram identified this lump only within the breast. 1) What is the best approach to identify if this lump is breast cancer or if it is benign? 2) They caught it early and the lump has been identified it as stage 1 breast cancer, classified as triple negative. What are two treatment approaches specific for this stage and classification of breast cancer? 3) The woman has 2 teenage daughters. a) What could you assess to determine if the daughters are at a genetic risk for breast cancer? b) What are 4 strategies that the daughters could modify in their daily life that would help in prevention and reducing their risk of developing breast cancer?arrow_forwardDepending on the purpose, the typhoid fever can be diagnosed in the laboratory by either of the following method, i) Widal, ii. Blood culture and iii. Nucleic acid based identification method. Write a brief essay comparing these three diagnostic tests.

- Which of the following statements are true about rubella and the administration of the rubella vaccine? Select all that apply. Women who are nonimmune to rubella should receive the vaccine 2 to 4 weeks after delivery. Women should be advised to not get pregnant for 4 weeks after receiving the rubella vaccine. The rubella vaccine is a combination vaccine that also contains varicella, pertussis, and diphtheria. Rubella exposure in the first trimester of pregnancy can lead to teratogenic effects, which include significant and severe fetal abnormalities and deformities. The rubella vaccine should be given with the RhoGAM shot for Rh-negative patients at 28 weeks' gestation if they are nonimmune.arrow_forwardWhy test that mice infected with B. anthracis produce antibodies to the S-layer proteins?

The study was performed by solid-phase ELISA on polystyrene tablets to detect antibodies to HIV. Stage II serological diagnosis was applied to those who tested positive for ELISA to definitively establish the fact of HIV infection. There were 8 such persons. What is the principle of the method used in the first stage of serological diagnosis? Antibodies to which components of HIV are determined in ELISA? What is the diagnostic value of ELISA? What components are needed for the implementation of solid-phase ELISA? Which method should be used in the second stage of HIV detection to avoid overdiagnosis? What is the principle of immunoblotting? Antibodies to which components of HIV are determined by immunoblotting? According to the results of which serological method is the final diagnosis of HIV infection made?arrow_forward
