Abstract

A rapid time to peak serum antibody response following vaccination is particularly important for influenza: the time window between the availability of appropriate antigen and the start of the seasonal epidemic is very short. In this paper, influenza vaccine was delivered to both the epidermis and dermis of mouse skin using densely packed microprojection arrays for vaccination. We found that, after vaccination, around 75% and 90% of the delivered influenza vaccine migrated away from the ear skin within just 2 days and 1 week - respectively. And the time to peak serum antibody response was as early as 2 weeks. This result matches the kinetics achieved by intramuscular injection of liquid vaccine to muscle. Thus, we demonstrate that skin delivery of small vaccine volumes discretely by thousands of densely packed microprojections neither induces delay in kinetics nor interferes with the long-lasting antibody response; compared to conventional intramuscular injection.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 4. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 06 June 2023.
All research outputs
#7,356,550
of 25,374,917 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Controlled Release
#3,453
of 9,727 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#43,226
of 153,108 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Controlled Release
#45
of 89 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,917 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 69th percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 9,727 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.9. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 63% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 153,108 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 69% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 89 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 46th percentile – i.e., 46% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
