Abstract
The adjuvant properties of nanoparticles derived from a dry birch bark extract were studied. Immunization experiments were carried out on mini pigs of the Svetlogorsk population, a human biomodel. Animals received two subcutaneous injections of the antigen at a dose of 0.1 mg/kg with an interval of 14 days. The addition of an aqueous suspension of nanoparticles to the immunogen samples up to a final concentration of 0.5 mg/ml led to an increase in the immune response. No side effects were observed. The antibody titers in blood sera on the 60th and 90th days from the start of immunization were comparable to those obtained under similar conditions using Freund’s adjuvant (1:4000).
