Biochemical Prospects and Major Obstacles in Nano-Vaccinology
Author(s): Elena Brown*
Wide ranging biomedical applications of nanomaterials include
disease control, prevention, and treatment. The remarkable
prevention of numerous infectious and non-infectious diseases of
importance to humans and animals has been demonstrated using
nanoparticle based vaccinations. Due to their simplicity of
administration and plasticity in physio-chemical properties, nano
vaccinations outnumber traditional vaccines. The improved
antigen stability, minimal immunotoxicity, sustained release,
increased immunogenicity, and the adaptability of nanoparticle
physical properties can all be credited with the effectiveness of
nano based vaccinations. Based on these, the nano based
vaccines may be able to trigger immune responses at the cellular
and humoral levels... View More»
