Immunologic Activity

The immunologic activity (specific activity) is one of the main indicators of quality of vaccines for prophylaxis of hepatitis B, along with their safety. Retrospective analysis of the use of laboratory methods for assessment of specific (immunogenic) activity of modern vaccines against hepatitis B using indicators was carried out: in vitro method based on evaluation of HBsAg content and in vivo method based on evaluation of immunogenic activity in mice. Both methods are standardized and described in normative documents on the vaccines against hepatitis B of domestic production registered in the Russian Federation. Indicators of specific (immunogenic) activity of vaccines against hepatitis B were used to investigate more than 170 vaccine series using the ELISA method in the period from 2013 to 2015. The obtained control results confirmed the expediency and efficiency of enzyme immunoassay for determination of HBsAg content, as well as permissibility of use of ready sets of the Murex HBsAg Version 3 test systems for testing vaccines against hepatitis B by the ELISA method. Analysis of the results of laboratory control of series of vaccines against hepatitis B using a biological method for immunogenicity evaluation based on ED50 analysis confirms persistently high immunogenic activity of the Russian commercial vaccines intended for prophylaxis of hepatitis B. The confirmed comparability of methods allows the number of in vivo tests to be further reduced in favor of the enzyme immunoassay authentically characterizing the produced drug.

Synthetic Antigens

The role of glycoconjugates in tumor cell differentiation has been well documented. We have examined the expression of the two anomers of the Thomsen-Friedenreich antigen on the surface of human, canine and murine tumor cell membranes both in vitro and in vivo. This has been accomplished through the synthesis of the disaccharide terminal residues in both a and ß configuration. Both entities were used to generate murine monoclonal antibodies which recognized the carbohydrate determinants. The determination of fine specificities of these antibodies was effected by means of cellular uptake, immunohistopathology and immunoscintigraphy. Examination of pathological specimens of human and canine tumor tissue indicated that the expressed antigen was in the β configuration. More than 89% of all human carcinomas tested expressed the antigen in the above anomeric form. The combination of synthetic antigens and monoclonal antibodies raised specifically against them provide us with invaluable tools for the study of tumor marker expression in humans and their respective animal tumor models.

SummaryStorage experiments were performed at 4°, 25° and 37° C with platelet-rich plasma under sterile conditions. In some experiments also the effect of storing platelets at 4° C in whole blood was investigated.Before, during and after three days of storage, the platelets were tested at 37° C for their serotonin uptake and response to hypotonic shock. In addition some glycolytic intermediates were determined.A fair correlation was noticed between the serotonin uptake and hypotonic shock experiments. Both parameters were best maintained at 25° C. Also platelet counting, performed after the storage period, indicated 25° C as the best storage temperature. Determination of glycolytic intermediates did not justify any conclusion regarding the optimal storage temperature. Of the various anticoagulants studied, ACD and heparin gave the best results as to the serotonin uptake and hypotonic shock response, either with fresh or stored platelets. The use of EDTA resulted in the lowest activity, especially after storage.The results of these storage experiments in vitro, correspond well with those in vivo reported in the literature.
