We studied anti-HBs titer, positive and effective rate in relation to dosages(5, 10) and time interval after third vaccination in 23 infants born to HBsAg negative mother. The babies were divided into two groups. In one group(n=12), 5 of Hepavax was administered intramusculary at 1 month, 2 months and 6 months age, in other group (n=11), 10 of Hepavax at...

The transmission of hepatitis B virus (HBV) from carrier mothers to their infants is a serious problem in many countries and the transmission rate is reported to be as high as 60%. The best preventive method of perinatal transmission is hepatitis B immune globulin (HBIG) which confers a passive immunity and HB vaccine which confers an active immunity. However, the exact dosage and the...

For evaluation of immunogenecity of low-dose of hepatitis vaccine-prepared by Korea Green Cross Corporation 74 school aged children were given routine schedule (0, 1, 6 months). A dose of 5 microgram was administered intramuscullary in the cases of age under 10 yrs of age and 10 microgram was administered in the cases over 11 yrs of age. An adequate follow-up observation of antibody titer...

After the discovery of Australia antigen by Blumberg et al in 1965, subsequent studies revealed that Australia antigen is identical with surface antigen of hepatitis B virus. The infants born to HBsAg positive mother can be protected from perinatal hepatitis B virus infection with hepatitis B vaccine and hepatitis B immunoglobulin. If the dose of vaccine can be reduced from...
