New poliovirus vaccines: a molecular approach

Review

New poliovirus vaccines: a molecular approach

J W Almond et al. Vaccine. 1984 Sep.

Abstract

This article summarizes recent work on the determinants of antigenicity in poliovirus type 3 and reports on experiments in progress aimed at understanding the molecular basis of attenuation in Sabin's type 3 vaccines. Ways in which this new information might be used to produce alternative, safe, inexpensive, multivalent vaccines against polio and other enteroviruses are discussed.
