TERMS Flashcards
induces immune system to produce Ab or cell mediated immunity; elicits protective levels of Ab for years
active immunity
administration of exogenously produced Ab; Ab levels maintained for shorter period of time
passive immunity
suspension of attenuated live or killed microorganism administered to induce immunity
vaccine
modified bacteria toxin administered to stimulate formation of anti toxins
toxoid
passive administration of Ab, can be general (IVIG) or specific (HBIG,VZIG)
what Ab crosses?
immune globin
IgG
solution of AB derived from the serum of animals immunized against a specific disease (used for passive immunity or to affect a treatment)
antitoxin
the response associated with the initial encounter of the vaccine (IgM and IgG)
primary series
primary immunization
subsequent exposure to the antigen
Ab product occurs much sooner, shorter latent period, and higher Ab levels
makes immunization protection more durable
secondary immunization (booster)
what are the adult immunization?
diphtheria booster herpes zoster influenza pertussis booster pneumococcus tetanus booster
