  • Vitro assay for measuring the immunogenicity of a vaccine
    Publication number: 20020160358
    Abstract: The present invention provides an assay for measuring the immunogenicity of a vaccine, wherein the vaccine contains an epitope having a conformation associated with an immunogenically active form of the vaccine and a fragment having a conformation associated with an immunogenically inactive form of the vaccine, wherein the method includes exposing a sample of the vaccine to a first ligand capable of binding to the epitope in the conformation associated with the immunogenically active form of the vaccine and a second ligand capable of binding to the fragment in the conformation associated with the immunogenically inactive form of the vaccine and measuring the amount of first ligand bound to the vaccine sample and the amount of the second ligand bound to the vaccine sample.
