Microbial and Immunological Vaccination

Microbial vaccines are designed to mimic the presence of a pathogen (bacteria, virus, or parasite) in a way that prompts an immune response without causing illness. These vaccines contain antigens (specific parts or products of the pathogen) that trigger the immune system's recognition and response.

Types of Microbial Vaccines

Inactivated (Killed) Vaccines

Live Attenuated Vaccines

Subunit, Recombinant, or Conjugate Vaccines
