Antigen Delivery Systems Immunological and Technological Issues presents anuptodate overview of recent developments in this field. Reviewing new trendsin vaccine development programs from the standpoints of the World HealthOrganization WHO and industry this text also emphasizes the requirements ofvaried vaccine delivery systems. Moreover essential aspects of antigenpresentation and adjuvant effect are covered with examples of frequentlystudied antigen delivery systems such as liposomes and nanomicroparticles. Theimportance of delivery systems to the immunogenicity of various antigens interms of intensity and duration of antibody and T cell responses and theaspects of preparation technology are also discussed. Traditional recombinantand synthetic antigens including the two main routes of administration i.e.parenteral and peroral are considered. «
