Match List I with List II and select the correct answer using the code given below the lists:
List I (Vaccine) List II (Type of vaccine) A. Hepatitis B vaccine 1. Live attenuated vaccine B. Diphtheria vaccine 2. Sub unit vaccine C. Haemophilus influenzae vaccine 3. Toxoid D. Measles vaccine 4. Polysaccharide vaccine
Vaccine Matching Solution
Vaccine Classification Breakdown
This question requires matching specific vaccines to their correct classification based on how they are made or work.
- Hepatitis B vaccine: This is a Sub unit vaccine. It uses only specific pieces (antigens) of the virus, like a surface protein, to trigger an immune response.
- Diphtheria vaccine: This is a Toxoid vaccine. It uses an inactivated toxin (toxoid) produced by the bacteria, which the immune system learns to fight without causing the disease.
- Haemophilus influenzae vaccine (Hib): This vaccine, specifically targeting type b, is typically a conjugate vaccine, which is derived from the Polysaccharide capsule of the bacteria linked to a carrier protein.
- Measles vaccine: This is a Live attenuated vaccine. It contains a weakened (attenuated) form of the live virus that can still replicate but does not cause serious illness.
Matching List I with List II
Based on the classifications:
- A. Hepatitis B vaccine matches with 2. Sub unit vaccine
- B. Diphtheria vaccine matches with 3. Toxoid
- C. Haemophilus influenzae vaccine matches with 4. Polysaccharide vaccine
- D. Measles vaccine matches with 1. Live attenuated vaccine
Final Correct Match Code
The correct combination is A/2, B/3, C/4, D/1.
| List I | List II |
| A. Hepatitis B vaccine | 2. Sub unit vaccine |
| B. Diphtheria vaccine | 3. Toxoid |
| C. Haemophilus influenzae vaccine | 4. Polysaccharide vaccine |
| D. Measles vaccine | 1. Live attenuated vaccine |
This corresponds to the matching code: A/2 B/3 C/4 D/1.
