Research Abstract

Nanomaterials have superior functions, so it is expected that they will play an active part in medicine, such as drug delivery system carrier, vaccine carrier, and so on. In the study, I have tried to develop transcutaneous vaccine with efficacy and safety by using amorphous nanosilica particles. I believe that the study will provide the basic information for the establishment of safer and effective nano-vaccine.
