German measles

The synthesis of adamantane (15), tricyclo[3.3.1.1 ]decane [281-23-2] by heating tetrahydrodicyclopentadiene (14) [6004-38-2] in the presence of aluminum trichloride illustrates another aspect of the synthetic utiHty of DCPD (80). Adamantane is the base for dmgs that control German measles and influenza (80-81) (see ANTIVIRAL AGENTS).

Measles, mumps and rubella (German measles) are infectious diseases, with respiratory routes of transmission and infection, caused by members of the paramyxovirus group. Each virus is immunologically distinct and has only one serotype. Whilst the primary multiplication sites of these viruses is within the respiratory tract, the diseases are associated with viral multiplication elsewhere in the host.

It should not be assumed that all birth defects and functional abnormalities in children are caused by drugs or environmental chemicals. It is clear that environmental factors such as extreme heat or cold, certain forms of radiation, infections (particularly German measles and syphilis), dietary deficiencies, and genetic disorders in the parents can all put the developing fetus at risk. 

Rubella, also known as German measles, is caused by the rubella virus. Rubella contracted during pregnancy is dangerous to the fetus, especially in the first trimester and may lead to stillbirths, congenital malformations or abortion. 

Tinea pedis is a fungal infection commonly known as athlete s foot. Chickenpox is a childhood infection caused by the herpes zoster virus. Hepatitis is a viral infection of the liver. Mumps is a viral infection characterised by bilateral or unilateral inflammation of the salivary glands. Rubella (German measles) is caused by the rubella virus. 

Viruses are parasitic nucleoprotein complexes. They often consist of only a single nucleic acid molecule (DNA or RNA, never both) and a protein coat. Viruses have no metabolism of their own, and can therefore only replicate themselves with the help of host cells. They are therefore not regarded as independent organisms. Viruses that damage the host cell when they replicate are pathogens. Diseases caused by viruses include AIDS, rabies, poliomyelitis, measles, German measles, smallpox, influenza, and the common cold. 

The word vaccination comes from vaccinia, the name of the virus now known to cause cowpox vaca is the Latin word for cow ). The term vaccination is now broadly used to describe the process of causing a mild disease in order to protect a person from a more dangerous disease. Vaccination is one form of immunization, exposing the body to a material to stimulate a protective response from the immune system. Vaccination is routinely used to prevent many illnesses, including measles, rnmnps, German measles (rubella), chicken pox, and polio. Many of these illnesses have disappeared or become very rare in developed countries that provide widespread vaccinations. Smallpox has been eradicated worldwide, thanks to...

Rubella or German measles, is a highly infectious disease, which mostly affects children, adolescents and young adults. 

The togaviruses, which are a little larger than the picomaviruses, have an icosahedral core surrounded by a lipid membrane. Yellow fever and rubella (German measles) are both caused by togaviruses. Other togaviruses, such as Sindbis virus502 and Semliki Forest virus,503 have become important in biological research. 

Vaccines in diis category protect children and adults from polio, diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis (whooping cough), measles (rubeola), mumps, rubella (German measles), hepatitis B, and hacmophilus disease (meningitis, epiglotitis). 

The cause of type 1 diabetes is not fuUy understood. An autoimmune attack (to the /3-cells of the pancreas) may be triggered by reaction to an infection, for example by one of the viruses of the Coxsackie virus family or German measles, although the evidence is inconclusive. Individuals may display genetic vulnerability an observed inherited tendency to develop type 1 diabetes has been traced to particular human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genotypes (the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) in humans is known as the HLA system). Environmental factors can also strongly influence expression of type 1 diabetes.

Rubella vaccine (German measles vaccine, live. Meruvax II, Merck) is a live, attenuated ruhella virus produced in human diploid cell culture. The antigen form of the vaccine is whole virus. The antigen type is protein. The vaccine i.s administered as part of the normal immunization schedule at 15 month.s. Side effects arc minimal, but there may be some soreness and pain at the site of injection and. stiffness of the joints. 

Maternal infections account for no more than 3% or 4% of the total load of congenital malformations. The most well known of these infections is rubella (German measles). Infection during various stages of gestation corresponds to the particular malformations produced. Malformation of the eye, including cataract and microphthalmia (literally small to...
