The immunological effectiveness of two batches of adsorbed DPT vaccine, the batch with the normal content of antigens (control) and the batch with the content of diphtheria and tetanus toxoids reduced to 20 Lf/ml and 5 BU/ml respectively (test batch), has been studied under the conditions of controlled trial. As a result, the reduction of the antigenic content of adsorbed DPT vaccine has been found to exert no negative influence on the immunological effectiveness of the diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis components of this preparation under the conditions of the new immunization schedule.
