    Abstract Inactivated Polio Vaccines (IPV) and live Oral Polio Vaccine (OPV) were introduced in the mid-20th century, and their coordinated worldwide use led to almost complete elimination of the disease, with only one serotype of poliovirus remaining endemic in just two countries. Polio eradication will lead to discontinuation of OPV use and its replacement with IPV or other vaccines that are currently under development that will need to be tested in clinical trials. Despite decades of research, questions remain about the serological correlates of polio vaccine efficacy, specifically whether the vaccines are equally protective against immunologically different strains of the same serotype. The absence of significant morbidity does not allow use of a protection endpoint in clinical trials, so the answer could be obtained only by using surrogate markers such as immunogenicity. In this study, a panel of wild and vaccine-derived polioviruses of serotype 1 were tested in neutralization assays with sera from vaccine-immunized individuals. The results demonstrated that there was a significant difference in titers of neutralizing antibodies in human sera when measured against different strains. When measured with a homologous strain used for vaccine manufacture all subjects had detectable levels of antibodies, while neutralization tests with some heterologous strains failed to detect neutralizing antibodies in a number of subjects. Administration of a booster dose of IPV led to a significant increase in neutralizing titers against all strains. Results of the experiments using animal sera, performed to obtain more information on protectivity of neutralizing antibodies against heterologous strains, were consistent with the results obtained in the assays using human sera. These results are discussed in the context of serological biomarkers of protection against poliomyelitis, suggesting that potency of vaccines made from serologically different strains should be determined against both homologous and heterologous challenge viruses.

    Abstract Replication of viruses leads to emergence of mutations and their content in viral populations can increase by selection depending on growth conditions. Some of these mutations have deleterious effect on vaccine safety, such as neurovirulent reversions in the 5'-UTR of attenuated Sabin strains of poliovirus. Their content in vaccine batches must be tightly controlled during vaccine manufacture to ensure safety of the product. This chapter describes a quantitative molecular procedure called mutant analysis by PCR and restriction enzyme cleavage (MAPREC) that is used to monitor content of neurovirulent revertants in Oral Polio Vaccine (OPV). The method can be used for quantitative analysis of any other mutation in a viral population.

    Abstract Recently, genetically stable novel OPVs (nOPV) were developed by modifying the genomes of Sabin viruses of conventional OPVs to reduce the risk of reversion to neurovirulence and therefore the risk of generating circulating vaccine-derived polioviruses. There is a need for specific and sensitive methods for the identification and quantification of nOPV viruses individually and in mixtures for clinical trials and potentially for manufacturing quality control and environmental surveillance. In this communication, we evaluated and improved the quantitative multiplex one-step reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (qmosRT-PCR) assay for the identification and quantification of nOPV viruses in samples with different formulations and virus concentrations and in virus-spiked stool samples. The assay was able to specifically identify at least 1 log
