Abstract

Due to vaccination the infection with measles has declined remarkably. However due to the waning phenomenon (secondary vaccine failure) there have been reports from limited epidemics in older ages. Therefore, this study was undertaken to determine the level of antibody in different age groups in order to identify the most appropriate age after the age of 15months at wich the 2nd vaccine could be administered. Seven different age groups, a) 6 month old. B) 9month old. C) 14 month old. D) 18month old.e) 6 year old. F)10 year old & g)15 year old. were selected by random clustered method and serum samples were obtained for detection of measles antibody. The data were interpreted using Chi square test. The presence of the antibody was determined using MORBILO IgG (RADIM) kits and by ELISA. Six months old children had not received vaccination. The 9 months old samples were obtained just before measles vaccination The 14 months old group had received a single vaccine at the age of 9 month. Those with the age of 18 months had 2 vaccinations at the age of9 and 15. Those with the age of 15 years had also an additional vaccine received about 3 to 9 months prior to the study. on the month, 10%are positive. In the 9 month, all are negative. on the 14 month, 52.9% are positive. on the 18month,group 89.4% are positive. on the 6 years, 60.8% are positive. on the 10 years, 45% are positive and on the 15 years, group 96.8% are positive. There was a significant difference between the positive cases of each 2 age groups (P<0.00001). Due to significant waning of antibody an additional measles vaccine in Iran is recommended.
