Abstract
We are developing an anticandidal vaccine using the recombinant N terminus of Als3p (rAls3p-N). We report that although more rAls3p-N was bound by aluminum hydroxide diluted in saline than by aluminum hydroxide diluted in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), its immunogenicity and efficacy were superior in PBS. Thus, protein binding, by itself, may not predict the efficacy of some vaccines with aluminum adjuvants.Entities:
