5-mouse 80-day immunization protocol

This mouse immunization schedule uses five BALB/c mice for each immunogen. Animals are housed individually in separate cages. Injections are subcutaneous (SQ) as emulsions in Complete Freund's Adjuvant (CFA) or Incomplete Freund's Adjuvant (IFA); alternative adjuvants can be used upon request. Customizations to the protocol are available. For example, you can choose the number of mice needed and you can adjust the length of your protocol beyond the 80-day immunization schedule to meet your research goals. Please contact us to discuss the options in detail. Antigen preparation, such as peptide synthesis and/or immunogen conjugations, occur before day 0. Protocol days are approximate (+ 2 days).
