Preparation and Testing of Radiovaccines
Abstract
The radiosterilization of the viruses studied is obtained using doses of alpha particles on the order of 3 to 10 Mrad with the exception of the vaccine; the radiovaccines of these viruses have not shown any notable protective power. The bacterial radiovaccines prepared in normal saline solution using doses comprised between 50 and 200 Mrad retain certain properties of the live bacilli (mobility, respiration, antigenic power) and show a protective power at least equal to that of the heated vaccines.
