A Candidate H1N1 Pandemic Influenza Vaccine Elicits Protective Immunity in Mice (2010)
Journal Article
Steitz, J., Barlow, P. G., Hossain, J., Kim, E., Okada, K., Kenniston, T., Rea, S., Donis, R. O., & Gambotto, A. (2010). A Candidate H1N1 Pandemic Influenza Vaccine Elicits Protective Immunity in Mice. PLOS ONE, 5(5), Article e10492. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0010492

Background
In 2009 a new pandemic disease appeared and spread globally. The recent emergence of the pandemic influenza virus H1N1 first isolated in Mexico and USA raised concerns about vaccine availability. We here report our development of an adeno... Read More about A Candidate H1N1 Pandemic Influenza Vaccine Elicits Protective Immunity in Mice.
