Antigen-loaded chitosan nanoparticles for immunotherapy

摘要

The present invention is directed to nanoparticles comprising chitosan and an antigen, whereby the chitosan has a degree of deacetylation of about 90% and a molecular weight from 5 kDa to 80 kDa, to microparticles containing such nanoparticles as well as to a process for preparation of such particles. The particles are usable for vaccination.
