Abstract: The present disclosure describes pharmaceutically stable high concentration liquid formulations of antibody. Such formulations comprise, in addition to the antibody, at least one anti-aggregating agent selected from arginine or lysine, buffer and poloxamer 188. In addition, the present disclosure provides high concentrated antibody formulation having high monomer, low aggregates and desirable viscosity.

Abstract: The present invention concerns an energy dispersion calibration method for calibrating an electron spectrometer of an electron spectrometer system including at least one electron emission source, electron optics and the electron spectrometer. The method comprising: obtaining, providing or receiving at least one electron energy loss spectrum produced by electrons of the electron spectrometer system exchanging energy with at least one resonant optical mode of an optical resonator into which light at a resonant wavelength is coupled; calculating or providing a Fourier transform of the at least one electron energy loss spectrum or a part of the at least one electron energy loss spectrum; determining or providing an energy dispersion (?E) of the electron spectrometer according to the equation ? ? E = f E ? hc ? ? N ? or ? ? ? E = f E ? E p N .

Abstract: Compositions that include at least three fusion proteins comprising flagellin and influenza antigens. In embodiments, the influenza antigens can include influenza A and influenza B antigens. The composition can further include at least one adjuvant.

Abstract: Compositions that include a fusion protein comprising flagellin and at least one antigen that has an isoelectric point greater than about 7.0 and that is fused to at least one domain 3 of the flagellin activate Toll-like Receptor 5. Methods of stimulating an immune response, in particular, a protective immune response include administering a composition that includes an antigen fused to a loop of domain 3 of flagellin.

Abstract: The present invention relates to improved vaccines and the design and making of such vaccines that enhance immunogenicity of the vaccine and/or reduce reactogenicity to the vaccine when administered. In particular the vaccines and immunogenic compositions of the present invention relate to flagellin-antigen fusion proteins in which the spatial orientation of the flagellin to antigen and the charge distribution of the antigen is optimized to enhance immunogenicity and/or reduce reactogenicity and/or improve folding of the protein.

In particular the vaccines and immunogenic compositions of the present invention relate to flagellin-antigen fusion proteins in which the spatial orientation of the flagellin to antigen and the charge distribution of the antigen is optimized to enhance immunogenicity and/or reduce reactogenicity. The present invention also relates to methods of evaluating the vaccines by measuring the relative expression of certain gene markers. Altered expression of the genes relative to flagellin control sample may indicate that the vaccine is suitable to stimulate an adaptive immune response to the antigen component in the subject with minimal side effects.
