Vaccination with Phage-Displayed Antigenic Epitope

  • First Online:

Part of the book series: Methods in Molecular Biology ((MIMB,volume 1625))

Abstract

Phage-displayed antigenic epitope is able to induce both humoral and cell-mediated immune responses, which could be used as an delivery system to design vaccines without compromising safety and tolerability. Here, we describe the vaccination with phage-displayed antigenic epitope (M13 phage-displayed SLAQVKYTSASSI) against Candida albicans infection in BALB/c mice by this method.
