Objective. To determine whether gender, race (black or white), or level of parental education
influenced serologic responses or reporting of clinical reactions after immunization with
acellular (DTaP) or whole-cell (DTP) pertussis vaccine with diphtheria and tetanus toxoids
combined. Methods. Healthy infants were prospectively randomized to receive one of 13
DTaP, Lederle DTP, or another DTP. Parents recorded the occurrence of adverse reactions
