Mice were immunized s.c. on days 0 and 21, bled on day 35, and challenged I.N. with 500 TCID50 of mouse adapted A/California/04/2009 on day 42. Infected mice were monitored daily (n = 10) for mortality for 21 days. SP: seroprotective titer, mice% with ≥40 HAI titers.
Two-way ANOVA/Boferroni tests for HAI data (n = 15):
, p<0.01 (**) vs STF2.HA1;
, p<0.001 (***) vs STF2R3.2xHA1;
, p<0.001 (***) vs STF2R3.2xHA1;
, p<0.05 vs STF2R3.2xHA1.
Fisher's exact test for survival data (n = 10):
, p<0.05;
, p<0.01;
, p<0.001;
, p<0.05 (*) vs STF2.HA1 at the same dose (0.03 µg/mouse).
