Since the naturally acquired tetanus antitoxin titre in Indian population is mostly less than protective levels, to minimise the incidence of morbidity, Glaxo Laboratories (India) Ltd, Bombay have prepared a single dose potent tetanus vaccine of 250 Lf as compared to 5 Lf previous tetanus toxoid. Subacute toxicity study revealed that this toxoid (250 Lf) injected at different dose levels (1-2 ml/rat/injection .times. 4) is non-toxic to rats.
