[New vaccine against trachoma].
The new vaccine against trachoma is established upon a stimulation of MALT system by oral route. The amount of IgA produced using chlamydia trachomatis serovar C is sufficient to allow a protection against infections of the same species of chlamydiae and/or of others varieties. There is a cross immunity between different serovars and different species. The vaccine could bring a protection against trachoma, chlamydial infection of human and animals.
