Abstract
⺠We investigated transfollicular vaccination via intact skin using nanoparticles(NP). ⺠Polymeric NP from PLGA+- chitosan were loaded with ovalbumin (OVA). ⺠OVA/NP stimulated proliferation of CD4+ &/or CD8+ T-cells more than OVA/solution. ⺠NP improved (Ã2-3) follicular delivery of OVA on pig ears compared to OVA/solution. ⺠Consequently using OVA/NP one may reduce the dose compared to OVA/solution.
