Abstract
Compositions for determining the efficacy and/or potency of a vaccine preparation are described herein. Splenocytes from immunized animals are isolated and can be frozen. Upon thawing such cells are activated by exposure to a series of dilutions of a vaccine preparation being tested and a series of dilutions of a reference vaccine with known characteristics. Cells secreting immunogen-specific antibody and cells secreting nonspecific antibody are enumerated, as is the amount of immunogen-specific and nonspecific antibody produced. Comparison between the results from the vaccine preparations provides a measure of relative vaccine efficacy and/or potency.
