Intradermal antitetanic-antityphoid booster by jet injection.
The immunogenicity and the reactogenicity of an unadsorbed Tetanus vaccine, intradermally administered in man as a booster immunization associated or not with lyophilized Typhoid vaccine, were comparatively studied. There were no differences in postvaccinal reactions between the Tetanus vaccine administered alone or associated with Typhoid vaccine as well as between the unadsorbed and adsorbed Tetanus vaccine. The booster inoculation carried out with Tetanus vaccine by i.d. route with doses of 10 Lf/0.1 ml proved to be effective, inducing to all the subjects a definite protective titre, maintaining for at least one year.
