Table 5. Serum and nasal HA-specific antibody responses after two doses of the nasal vaccine.

  Isotype Week Serum Nasal wash
GMT (Mean geometric increase) IgG 0 83.7 (1.00) 80.0 (1.00)
    6 247.7 (2.96) 109.8 (1.37)
  IgA 0 14.6 (1.00) 122.0 (1.00)
    6 36.0 (2.47) 473.5 (3.88)

a Serum HA-specific antibody titers of < 1:10 were considered negative and arbitrarily assigned a titer of 1:5. b Nasal HA-specific antibody responses were determined using concentrated nasal wash samples containing 1 mg/ml total protein. Nasal HA-specific IgG and IgA titers of < 1:160 were considered negative and arbitrarily assigned a titer of 1:80.
