Abstract
⺠Nasal NV VLP dry powder mucoadhesive-containing formulation induces systemic and mucosal immunity. ⺠Mucoadhesive-containing dry powder formulation stabilizes the norovirus VLP antigen. ⺠Mucoadhesive nasal dry powder vaccine exhibits superior immunogenicity over liquid formulation with adjuvant. ⺠Mucoadhesive delays mucociliary clearance in the nasal cavity, but is not immunostimulatory. ⺠The nasal dry powder formulation offers needle-free administration and better vaccine stability.
