Which of the following does not increase the immunological effectiveness of DPT vaccine? 
Select and explain. 
A. Aluminium phosphate, B. Inactivated whole cell peussis vaccine, C. Hib polysaccharide conjugated to diphtheria toxoid, D. Purified and detoxified components of B. peussis
C: Hib polysaccharide conjugated to diphtheria toxoid
Answer: C: Hib polysaccharide conjugated to diphtheria toxoid 
Explanation: Hib polysaccharide is conjugated to a protein carrier like diphtheria toxoid (PRP-D) which increases its immunogenicity. But the immunogenicity of DPT vaccine is not increased by Hib vaccine. The peussis component in the DPT vaccine enhances the potency of the diphtheria toxoid. Adsorption of DPT vaccine on a mineral carrier like aluminium phosphate increases its immunogenicity. Ref: Park's Textbook Of Preventive And Social Medicine, By K.
