Percentages of Participants With Rabies-specific Serum Virus-neutralizing Antibody Titer (VNTs)
Time Frame: Baseline (Day 1), Days 15, 43, 365, 547, and 730
|
Rabies-specific serum response was defined as VNT ≥ 0.5 international units per milliliter (IU/mL).
Rabies-specific serum VNT were measured using the WHO-recommended rapid fluorescent foci inhibition test (RFFIT).
Serial dilutions of each serum sample are mixed with a standard dose of rabies virus before tissue culture cells are added.
Virus infected cells are detected via a fluorochrome conjugated rabies-specific antibody.
If the serum contains antibodies that bind and neutralize the virus, the infectivity of the virus is reduced.
The virus neutralization end-point titer is defined as the highest sample dilution at which 50% of the observed microscopic fields contain ≥ 1 infected cell.
The percentages of participants with rabies-specific serum VNTs ≥0.5 were taken as positive and were reported.

|
Serum geometric mean titer (antilog mean of log-transformed VNTs) was obtained from measuring VNTs using the WHO-recommended rapid fluorescent foci inhibition test.
The virus neutralization end-point titer (VNT) is defined as the highest sample dilution at which 50% of the observed microscopic fields contain >=1 infected cell.
