Refimprove date December 2009 A toxoid is a bacterial toxin usually an exotoxin whose toxicity has been weakened or suppressed either by chemical formalin or heat treatment, while other properties, typically antigen immunogenicity , are maintained.

For example, the tetanus toxoid ref http www.fda.gov downloads BiologicsBloodVaccines Vaccines ApprovedProducts UCM142732.pdf downloaded 20100529 ref is derived from the tetanospasmin produced by Clostridium tetani .

Some 20 years later TBE vaccines derived from cell cultures chicken embryo fibroblast cells were developed and used for active immunization in humans in the former Soviet Union. Later, a purified, inactivated virus vaccine was developed which proved to be more immunogenic than previous TBE vaccines. The efficacy of these vaccines has been well documented. They have also been shown to protect mice from a lethal challenge with several TBE virus isolates obtained over a period of more than 30 years from all over Europe and the Asian part of the former Soviet Union. In addition, it has been demonstrated that antibodies induced by vaccination of human volunteers neutralized all tested isolates. References http www.who.int biologicals ... more details
