Inactivated culture vaccine against tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) FSME-Immun-Inject produced in Austria ("Immuno") was compared to vaccine produced in the Institute of Poliomyelitis and viral encephalitis by immunological activity, safety, reactogenicity. In mice, no significant differences in protective activity of the vaccines were found when test-strains were diverse strains of TBE virus. Seroconversion in the sera from the vaccinated two times was not significantly different by the level of antibodies determined for both eastern and western serotypes of TBE virus.
