Mechanism of action

sIPV (Sabin inactivated poliovirus vaccine) is prepared from attenuated poliovirus strains that are chemically inactivated, making them unable to cause disease while retaining immunogenicity. When administered, it triggers both humoral (antibody) and cellular immune responses that provide protection against wild-type poliovirus infection. This vaccine is used as part of routine immunization programs to prevent poliomyelitis.
