Seven neuraminic-acid-containing strains were tested for agglutination with diagnostic group-specific meningococcal antisera produced in rabbits, and all were positive with group B serum. Counter-immunoelectrophoresis of bacterial suspensions of the three strains with the strongest reaction with such anti-group B serum gave distinct precipitation lines. When tested by double immunodiffusion in agarose with monoclonal antibody to meningococcal group B polysaccharide, suspension of a strain of M nonliquefaciens gave identity reaction with a strain of Neisseria meningitidis, and reacted even more strongly than the latter. Phenol extracts of M nonliquefaciens strains generally contained higher amounts of neuraminic acid than N meningitidis group B strains. Neuraminic-acid-containing polysaccharides of M nonliquefaciens strains sedimented more slowly by ultra-centrifugation than the group-specific B polysaccharide of N meningitidis strains. They also reacted more strongly with a monoclonal anti-group B antiserum than did N meningitidis group B capsular polysaccharide in an antibody binding inhibition test (solid phase radioimmunoassay). Immunological reactivity of the polysaccharides of both species was lost if extraction was performed with unbuffered phenol at 68 degrees C, instead of with neutral phenol at 4 degrees C. The results show that several strains of M nonliquefaciens, often inhabiting the human nose, have high levels of a surface polysaccharide chemically and immunologically closely similar to N meningitidis group B capsular polysaccharide. The cross-reactivity may have immunological implications for meningococcal disease.</p>","PeriodicalId":76239,"journal":{"name":"NIPH annals","volume":"6 1","pages":"65-73"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1983-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"17472212","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Without any vaccination policy the frequency of congenital rubella is estimated at 0.4 per 1000 births. In this paper the consequences and effectiveness of the various vaccination programmes are evaluated by applying a cost benefit model. Economically, all strategies to prevent congenital rubella turn out to be cost effective. However, based on the benefit/cost ratios and the net benefit the following recommendation can be made: vaccination, preferentially with the polyvalent vaccine, should be offered to all girls in puberty as a permanent running programme. In addition, this policy should be supplemented for one or two decades with a programme offering vaccination to non-immunized women after delivery and to women especially at risk of exposure. However, if the participation and acceptance rate of the vaccination is less than 100%, permanent vaccination offered at two different ages (i e in childhood and in puberty) gives the best results in the prevention of congenital cases.</p>","PeriodicalId":76239,"journal":{"name":"NIPH annals","volume":"5 2","pages":"69-83"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1982-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"17872518","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
