Abstract:
498 healthy children aged from 1 to 10 years were examined on the relationships between immunized status and a number of received OPV doses as well as the period of time after the last OPV dose. The results showed that the mixed antibody rate of 3 types was 86.5%; the monotype antibody rate was 97.8% in type 1, 99.7% in type 2 and 89.3% in type 3. Antibody titer was very high in all ages, GMTs of type 1 and type 2 were 143 and 146, respectively while that of type 3 was 31. Antibody rate and antibody titer with poliovirus had decreased year by year, have relationship with the number of received OPV doses, as well as the duration after the last OPV dose
