Research findings, 'Virus-sized vaccine delivery systems,' are discussed in a new report. "In a return to the early days of vaccine development during which effective vaccines were produced against viruses, virus-sized vaccine delivery systems have made a comeback. Using modern production technologies these nanoparticles have proved to be very effective at inducing cellular and humoral immune responses," scientists in Parkville, Australia report.
