Figure 1. Antibody responses specific for H1N1 vaccine antigens in vaccinated cynomolgus macaques.

Figure 1

Cynomolgus macaques were subcutaneously immunized twice (in weeks 0 and 2) with a whole virus particle vaccine (#312, #775 and #784, orange symbols) or with a split vaccine (#729, #742 and #750, blue symbols) derived from Hokkaido2. Sera and swab samples were collected in indicated weeks after the first vaccination. IgM (A), IgG (B, E), IgA (C, F), and IgG1 (D) antibodies specific for Hokkaido2 antigens in sera (A-D) and nasal swab samples (E, F) were analyzed using ELISA. Optical densities at 450 nm are shown. In IgM and IgA measurements (A, C, F), the OD450 values before vaccination as non-specific background responses were subtracted from those after vaccination.
