This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: answers_active_passive_immunity, The IgA and IgG found in human colostrum and milk of babies who are nursed benefits Breast-fed infants have a lower incidence of gastrointestinal infections, ear infections, atopic dermatitis, respiratory infections, urinary tract infections, meningitis, type 2 diabetes, and sudden infant death sysdrome. Benefits to the mother include a decreased risk of breast cancer, ovarian cancer, and type 2 diabetes., attenuated microbes examples Var or varicella zoster virus vaccine containing attenuated varicella zoster viruses, fragments of microorganisms examples Meningococcal meningitis; contains capsular polysaccharide from 4 strains of Neisseria meningitidis, Passive artificially acquired immunity refers to the injection of antibody-containing serum, or immune globulin (IG) from another person or animal. examples RIG to prevent rabies, given concurently with active immunization with the rabies vaccine, fragments of microorganisms examples PCV 23 containing capsular material from the 23 most serious strains of S. pneumoniae in adults, toxoid examples The diphtheria and tetanus components of the DTaP and Td vaccines, Passive naturally acquired immunity refers to a fetus or baby receiving antibodies from the mother. examples The IgA and IgG found in human colostrum and milk of babies who are nursed, fragments of microorganisms examples Hemophilus influenzae type b containing capsular polysaccharide from H. influenzae type B, attenuated microbes examples MMR vaccine containing attenuated measles, mumps, and rubella viruses, attenuated microbes examples TOPV or trivalent oral polio vaccine containing attenuated poliomyelitis viruses types 1, 2, and 3, toxoid examples an exotoxin treated so as to be non-poisonous but still immunogenic, During passive immunity, antibodies made in another person or animal enter the body. types passive artificially acquired immunity, attenuated microbes examples MMRV vaccine containing attenuated measles, mumps, rubella viruses and varicella zoster (chickenpox) viruses, killed or inactivated microbes examples influenza vaccines consist of inactivated influenza viruses, either whole or broken down, Active naturally acquired immunity refers to the natural exposure to an infectious agent or other antigen by the body. results The body responds by making its own antibodies and memory cells., During active immunity, antigens enter the body and the body responds by making its own antibodies and B-memory cells. duration Immunity is longer lived although duration depends on the persistence of the antigen and the memory cells in the body., Active and Passive Immunity: Naturally and Artificially Acquired Passive Immunity During passive immunity, antibodies made in another person or animal enter the body., By giving a safe form of the antigen artificially, the body will produce its own antibodies and develop circulating, long-lived memory cells. types of antigen fragments of microorganisms, During passive immunity, antibodies made in another person or animal enter the body. duration The body does not make its own antibodies so immunity is short-lived., Passive artificially acquired immunity refers to the injection of antibody-containing serum, or immune globulin (IG) from another person or animal. examples human TIG to prevent tetanus in those not actively immunized with the DTP, DTaP, or Td vaccines
