METHOD FOR INCREASING AMOUNT OF ANTIGEN PRODUCED FROM DNA VACCINE, METHOD FOR ADMINISTERING DNA VACCINE AND METHOD FOR DETECTING ANTIGEN PRODUCED BY DNA VACCINE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a means for detecting the amount of an antigen produced by administration of a DNA vaccine in vivo in order to extend the usefulness of the DNA vaccine.;SOLUTION: The amount of the antigen produced from the administered DNA vaccine is increased because the transfer efficiency of the DNA vaccine into a cell is enhanced when the DNA vaccine is administered by using a needleless syringe. Thereby, the antigen produced from the administered DNA vaccine can be assayed in vivo by a usual means for enzyme-labeled antibody method. The method is thought to contribute to the extension of the usefulness of the DNA vaccine.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
