Nanopatch that Makes Polio Vaccination More Feasible

The research team at University of Queensland with funding from World Health Organisation have taken a significant step forward to eradicate all traces of polio virus in the world. The study showed that an alternative vaccine delivery system, Nanopatch, combats the polio virus more efficiently than the conventional intra-muscular delivery system. It also is successful in eliciting an immune response for all three types of inactivated polio virus vaccines.
