By Andrew J. Pollard, Martin C.J. Maiden
Andrew Pollard and Martin Maiden have assembled a magnificent number of the most recent molecular and mobile ideas for the improvement, overview, and implementation of vaccines for use in contrast dreaded disorder. The contributors-leading scientists, clinicians, and public wellbeing and fitness physicians-describe intimately the numerous ways to vaccine layout, in addition to the review of immune reaction to vaccine applicants and novel vaccine formulations. well timed and entire, Meningococcal Vaccines: equipment and Protocols offers the scientist, public health and wellbeing surgeon, epidemiologist, medical microbiologist, and clinician with the basic instruments to put naked the secrets and techniques of the meningococcus, and to increase, evaluation, and enforce profitable new meningococcal vaccines.

Borna Disease Virus: Mögliche Ursache neurologischer und psychiatrischer Störungen des Menschen
Die Borna'sche Krankheit ist schon lange bei Tieren, v. a. bei Pferden und Schafen, als eine sporadisch auftretende, progressiv verlaufende Encephalomyelitis bekannt und galt ausschließlich als tierpathogen. In Studien konnten Wissenschaftler BD-virusspezifische Antikörper auch in Liquores von Menschen mit psychiatrisch relevantem Krankheitsbild nachweisen, die die Erkenntnis brachten, daß der Mensch mit dem BD-Virus infizierbar ist.
