Is the tetanus vaccine made from horse serum?
No, the tetanus toxoid (routine vaccine) is not. However, the tetanus antitoxin for horses (which imparts antibodies directly to the horse that were produced by another horse) does. That is why the antitoxin comes with increased risk of adverse reaction and also why it doesn't provide prolonged protection. The toxoid causes the horse's body to develop it's own antibodies against the toxin that causes Tetanus while the antitoxin is pre-made antibodies.
How is antivenom made?
Hi my name is Brett. I do not know if all antivenom is made this way. But apparently for snake antivenom it is. First they will milk the snake for its venom then inject small dosages of the venom into a horse or goat. The Horse will build up antibodies to the venom until it is almost immune to it. The antibodies are then extracted from the blood of the horse and purified into a serum. This is just a broad description of what the process is.
