Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Hypothesis:

The immunogenicity of oral polio vaccine (OPV) will be enhanced in Bangladeshi infants who receive bicarbonate buffer at the time of polio immunization.

Detailed Description
