Vaccination Status, Control of Vaccination Titers, Facts

Vaccination Laboratory parameters Value Rating
Diphtheria Diphtheria antibody <0.1 IU/ml No vaccine protection detectable → basic immunization required (→ check after 4 weeks)
0.1-1.0IU/ml Vaccination protection not reliably sufficient → booster required (→ check after 4 weeks)
1.0-1.4 IU/ml Booster recommended after 5 years
1.5-1.9 IU/ml Booster recommended after 7 years
> 2.0 IU/ml Booster recommended after 10 years
Hepatitis B Anti-HBs-ELISA ≤ 100 U/l No sufficient vaccination protection → booster required
> 100 U/l Sufficient vaccination protection
Influenza Influenza A/B-IgG-IFT ≤ 1: 10 No sufficient vaccination protection to be assumed
1: > 10 Assume sufficient vaccination protection
Poliomyelitis (polio) Polio neutralization test Type 1 If all three neutralization tests are 1:16 or higher, immunity to all three poliomyelitis virus types (types 1, 2, 3) is present (= sufficient immune protection)
type 2
Type 3
Tetanus (lockjaw) Tetanus IgG ELISA <0.1 U/ml No sufficient vaccination protection detectable → basic immunization required
0.1-0.2 U/ml Questionable vaccination protection → booster recommended
> 0.2 U/ml Sufficient vaccination protection (→ control in 3 years).
