live attenuated vaccines

How Are They Developed?

The development of live attenuated vaccines involves several steps:
1. Isolation of the Pathogen: The pathogen causing the disease is isolated.
2. Attenuation: The pathogen is weakened through various methods, such as passing it through different cell cultures or animal embryos.
3. Testing: The attenuated pathogen is tested in pre-clinical and clinical trials to ensure it is safe and effective.
4. Regulation and Approval: Regulatory bodies review the data and approve the vaccine for public use.
