Pharmacokinetics of human tick-borne encephalitis virus antibody levels after injection with human tick-borne encephalitis immunoglobulin, solvent/detergent treated, FSME-BULIN S/D in healthy volunteers.

This study assessed tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) neutralizing antibody levels after injection of FSME-BULIN S/D (human tick-borne encephalitis immunoglobulin; 0.2 ml/kg body weight) in healthy volunteers. After screening of 18 volunteers for TBEV antibody titers, 12 healthy volunteers with TBEV antibody titers < 5 were entered into the pharmacokinetic part of the study.

Tetanus antibody levels of female volunteers after injection with solvent/detergent-treated human tetanus immunoglobulin (Tetabulin S/D).

Background And Objectives: The aim of this study was to analyse the increase of antitetanus titre in volunteers following injection with human tetanus immunoglobulin (HTI).

Materials And Methods: Twelve females with tetanus antibody titres of < or = 0.05 international units (IU)/ml were injected with 500 IU of human tetanus immunoglobulin (Tetabulin S/D).
