Overview

**Unconjugated meningococcal polysaccharide vaccine (serogroups A, C)** is a bacterial vaccine composed of purified capsular polysaccharides derived from *Neisseria meningitidis* serogroups A and C. Unlike conjugate vaccines, these polysaccharides are not linked to a protein carrier. The vaccine works by inducing an immune response against the capsular polysaccharides, generating serum bactericidal antibodies that protect against invasive meningococcal disease caused by serogroups A and C. It is formulated as a lyophilized powder and typically administered via intramuscular or subcutaneous injection. The unconjugated form is primarily used for outbreak control in specific regions and age groups, and is less commonly used than conjugate vaccines due to limited immune memory and effectiveness in young children[7].
