The ability of an organism to resist infection and disease, either through an immune response triggered by immunization or previous infection, or via other non-immunological factors.

Refers to the body's innate, non-specific defense mechanisms present from birth. It's the first line of defense against foreign pathogens.

Consists of specialized cells like dendritic cells (DCs), natural killer (NK) cells, macrophages, neutrophils, basophils, eosinophils, and mast cells.

Protection developed after exposure to a specific antigen. It involves B and T lymphocytes, leading to immunological memory.

Acquired immunity resulting from the active production or receipt of antibodies.

Protection gained by getting the disease naturally.

Protection gained through immunization with a vaccine that stimulates the body to produce its own antibodies.

Protection acquired by direct injection of antibodies (immunoglobulin).

Immunity acquired by receiving antibodies from another person or animal, like a mother passing antibodies to her baby.

The type of immunity that is naturally acquired through exposure to an antigen.

The type of immunity that is acquired through artificial means, such as vaccination.

A substance containing antibodies or immune cells that is introduced into the body to provide passive immunity.

A type of antiserum that contains antibodies specifically against toxins produced by bacteria.

A concentrated solution of antibodies extracted from the blood of human donors. It provides passive immunity against various diseases.

Immunity acquired through direct exposure to an infectious agent, either naturally through illness or artificially through vaccination.

Immunity acquired by receiving pre-made antibodies, rather than your body producing them itself. This immunity is temporary.

Substances used to stimulate the immune system to produce immunity against specific diseases.

Vaccines that use weakened forms of the infectious agent. While they can cause a mild form of the disease, they are effective in stimulating a strong immune response.

Vaccines that contain inactive or killed versions of the infectious agent, stimulating the immune system without causing the disease.

Vaccines containing killed or inactivated microbes, such as the rabies vaccine with whole, killed rabies viruses and the influenza vaccine with inactivated influenza viruses.

Vaccines containing fragments of microorganisms, like the Hemophilus influenzae type b vaccine.

DNA from two or more sources combined in a single molecule, commonly used for vaccine creation. Examples include the Hepatitis B vaccine (HepB), Diphtheria, Tetanus, Acellular Pertussis (DTaP) vaccine, and Hepatitis A vaccine (HepA).

An exotoxin treated to be nonpoisonous but still capable of stimulating an immune response against the natural exotoxin. Examples include the tetanus and diphtheria vaccines.

Antibody-containing serum obtained from another person. An example is Human Hepatitis B Immunoglobulin (HBIG) used to prevent hepatitis B in those not actively immunized.

A type of vaccine that provides immediate but temporary protection. Examples include the measles, mumps, rubella (MMR) vaccine, the oral polio vaccine, and the yellow fever vaccine.
