  2. Cell-based vaccine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell-based_vaccine

    Cell-based vaccine. Cell-based vaccines are developed from mammalian or more rarely avian or insect cell lines rather than the more common method which uses the cells in embryonic chicken eggs to develop the antigens. [1] The potential use of cell culture techniques in developing viral vaccines has been widely investigated in the 2000s as a ...

  3. Use of fetal tissue in vaccine development - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Use_of_fetal_tissue_in...

    The use of fetal tissue in vaccine development is the practice of researching, developing, and producing vaccines through growing viruses in cultured (laboratory-grown) cells that were originally derived from human fetal tissue. [1] Since the cell strains in use originate from abortions, [2] there has been opposition to the practice and the ...

  4. List of human cell types - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_human_cell_types

    t. e. The list of human cell types provides an enumeration and description of the various specialized cells found within the human body, highlighting their distinct functions, characteristics, and contributions to overall physiological processes. Cells may be classified [1] by their physiological function, histology (microscopic anatomy), [2 ...

  5. DNA vaccine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA_vaccine

    A DNA vaccine is a type of vaccine that transfects a specific antigen -coding DNA sequence into the cells of an organism as a mechanism to induce an immune response. [1] [2] DNA vaccines work by injecting genetically engineered plasmid containing the DNA sequence encoding the antigen (s) against which an immune response is sought, so the cells ...

  6. mRNA vaccine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MRNA_vaccine

    An mRNA vaccine is a type of vaccine that uses a copy of a molecule called messenger RNA (mRNA) to produce an immune response. [1] The vaccine delivers molecules of antigen -encoding mRNA into immune cells, which use the designed mRNA as a blueprint to build foreign protein that would normally be produced by a pathogen (such as a virus) or by a ...

    However, they can infect all types of antigen-presenting cells. [31] Moreover, as they are the only retroviral vectors able to efficiently transduce both dividing and non-dividing cells, make them the most promising vaccine platforms. [31] They have also been trialed as vaccines against cancer. [32]

  8. QR code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QR_code

    The QR code system was invented in 1994, at the Denso Wave automotive products company, in Japan. [5] [6] [7] The initial alternating-square design presented by the team of researchers, headed by Masahiro Hara, was influenced by the black counters and the white counters played on a Go board; [8] the pattern of position detection was found and determined by applying the least-used ratio (1:1:3 ...

  9. Genetic vaccine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic_vaccine

    As a result, genetic vaccines and live vaccines generate cytotoxic T-cells in addition to antibodies in the vaccinated individual. In contrast to live vaccines, only parts of the pathogen are used, which means that a reversion to an infectious pathogen cannot occur as it happened during the polio vaccinations with the Sabin vaccine.
