Vaxfectin
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Vaxfectin is a second-generation cationic lipid-based suspension that adjuvants effectively both pDNA and protein-based vaccines. Vaxfectin can boost the immune response against a range of pDNA-expressed pathogenic antigens in vivo. Vaxfectin can increase IgG titers and give rise to an IL-6 dependent enhancement of the humoral immune response without altering the Th1 type immune response. Vaxfectin can be studied for vaccine formulation.
