Passive Vs Active ImmunityPassive Vs Active Immunity
Passive immunization is immunotherapy Passive immunization is immunotherapy (transfer of antibodies)(transfer of antibodies)
Active immunization is immunity due to Active immunization is immunity due to natural infections or vaccinesnatural infections or vaccines

Passive ImmunizationPassive Immunization
Lasts as long as antibodies are present
Does not establish memory

Vaccines Provide Active ImmunityVaccines Provide Active Immunity
Vaccines provide active immunity & hence Vaccines provide active immunity & hence protect from diseases by establishing protect from diseases by establishing memory memory TT & & BB cells cells

What are Vaccines?What are Vaccines?
Preparations of materials such as virus or bacteria which are injected into a person to provide immunity against a particular disease

TYPES OF VACCINESTYPES OF VACCINES
VACCINES EXAMPLES
Attenuated (live) vaccines eg: Measles, Mumps & Rubella virus vaccine
Inactivated (killed) vaccines Influenza virus vaccine & Polio vaccine
Polysaccharide vaccines Pneumococcal pneumonia
Toxoid vaccines Tetanus vaccine
Recombinant vaccines Hepatitis B vaccines
DNA vaccines Influenza virus vaccine

It consists of a DNA molecule, generally a plasmid, with a gene that codes for the protein against which an immune response is desired.
DNA vaccines are actually made up of a modified form of an infectious organism’s DNA.
