ABSTRACT
Russian cultural concentrated inactivated vaccine protecting from hepatitis A--Hep-A-in-vac was used for immunization of children. The vaccine is slightly reactogenic and completely safe in children aged 3-17 years vaccinated twice in a dose of 0.25 ml. Double immunization of seronegative children with a 1-month interval led to conversion in 89.7% children. In 64.1% children titers of antibodies to hepatitis A virus reached 20 mIU/ml and higher, which indicates rather high antigenic activity of the vaccine.
