Abstract

Objective To explore the immune strategy of hepatitis B vaccine in adults.Methods Inoculate hepatitis A and B combined vaccine by a schedule of 0,1,6 months,each at a dosage of 20 μg,to 228 adults without response to several doses of hepatitis B vaccine.Collect serum sample 1 month after the third dose of combined vaccine was given for determination of anti-HBs by radioimmunoassay.Results The anti-HBs were positive in 172(75.44%) of 228 adult subjects,and the GMT of anti-HBs was 197.20 mIU/ml.Conclusion Hepatitis A and B combined vaccine enhanced the positive conversion of anti-HBs in adults without response to several doses of hepatitis B vaccine.
