Do polio microorganisms have the same antigens as a live pathogen?
Polio microorganisms, specifically the poliovirus, have distinct antigens that are specific to the virus itself. While these antigens can trigger an immune response similar to that of a live pathogen, they do not share the same antigens as other live pathogens. The immune system recognizes these unique poliovirus antigens, allowing for the production of antibodies specific to poliovirus during infection or vaccination.
