Abstract

Abstract Attenuated stable influenza type B virus strains are obtained by recombining a vaccinal and previously attenuated influenza type B virus strain with an influenza type B virus isolate having the desired serotype and isolating a recombinant having at least one marker property of the attenuated parent strain which is not shared by the other parent strain and the antigenic composition of the other parent strain. The obtained strains are useful for the production of nasal influenza vaccines.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim 94 words
A live influenza virus vaccine effective on intranasal administration comprising an effective amount of an attenuated influenza type B virus recombinant strain obtained by recombining a first vaccinal attenuated influenza type B virus strain resistant to serum inhibitors with a second influenza type B virus strain, and isolating a recombinant having (1) at least one marker property of the said first virus strain selected from the group consisting of positive allantoic membrane on shell and resistance to serum inhibitors and (2) the antigenic characteristics of the said second virus strain, and a carrier therefor.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 94 words
A live influenza virus vaccine effective on intranasal administration comprising an effective amount of an attenuated influenza type B virus recombinant strain obtained by recombining a first vaccinal attenuated influenza type B virus strain resistant to serum inhibitors with a second influenza type B virus strain, and isolating a recombinant having (1) at least one marker property of the said first virus strain selected from the group consisting of positive allantoic membrane on shell and resistance to serum inhibitors and (2) the antigenic characteristics of the said second virus strain, and a carrier therefor.
