What's the difference between antitoxin and antitoxine?
Antitoxin
Definition:
(n.) Alt. of Antitoxine
Example Sentences:
(1) The tetanus antitoxin titers of blood obtained by venepuncture and those of finger-blood absorbed on filter paper are compared when the titration techniques use fresh or formalinized erythrocytes sensitized by the bis-diazotized benzidine (BDB) method.
(2) The polyvalent antiserum administered contained A, B and E antitoxins.
(3) In both cases in the antitoxin excreted with urine represented monovalent.
(4) A sample of 643 healthy subjects from central Italy aged 20 to 80, were screened for diphtheria antitoxin.
(5) A cohort of close to 70 children born in 1967-68 was followed for estimations of serum antitoxin levels against diphtheria.
(6) Similarly, 74-82% of children 3 months-7 years had tetanus antitoxin levels high enough to avoid infection, as did 80-90% of older children.
(7) Neutralizing antibodies to pertussis toxin (antitoxin) were determined in 201 blood samples from 4-year-old children.
(8) A 5th isolate produced increased amounts of cytotoxin (SLT+) that was not neutralized by the Shiga antitoxin, but was neutralized by antitoxin against a variant of SLT (toxin designated as SLT-II).
(9) Serotherapy with C. botulinum type A antitoxin initiated 24 h postchallenge reduced the mortality rate to 5%.
(10) The lower levels of PHA antibody in sera from 11 of 17 controls suggested the acquisition of antitoxin secondary to asymptomatic infection.
(11) These might represent antitoxins bound bivalently to the solid phase but with affinities in monovalent binding insufficient for toxin neutralization or other coupled antibodies due to conformational changes of the antigen.
(12) Express immunization with the toxoid led to a marked increase in the level of staphylococcus antitoxin and also of the IgA, IgG, IgM in the sera of the vaccinated persons.
(13) Transitory neurological deterioration occurred in 38% of patients despite the early administration of trivalent (ABE) equine antitoxin.
(14) Cholera antitoxin, anti-choleragenoid and anti-LT were used as antisera.
(15) Serum samples from 727 persons with different vaccination histories were assessed for tetanus antitoxin content in an enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and tested for tetanus toxin neutralization activity in mice in order to compare the results obtained by the two methods.
(16) Four children with detectable antitoxin (greater than or equal to 5 units) before the first vaccination had pronounced antibody increases after the first dose.
(17) Antitoxin of IgG class was detected in 10 days, and increased gradually.
(18) perfringens filtrates but assays for antitoxin based on the use of cultures of Vero cells were practicable for Cl.
(19) Of the studied population 26.7% showed a lack of serum antitoxin titres considered to be protective.
(20) Diphtheria antitoxin level in serum samples obtained from 204 healthy children aged 11-14 years was determined by means of an indirect haemagglutination technique and related to the vaccinal history of the subjects.
Antitoxine
Definition:
(n.) A substance (sometimes the product of a specific micro-organism and sometimes naturally present in the blood or tissues of an animal), capable of producing immunity from certain diseases, or of counteracting the poisonous effects of pathogenic bacteria.
