Microparticle with cd28-specific monoclonal antibodies
The invention relates to microparticles with a support structure and CD28-specific superagonistic monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) bonded to the support structure or a compound mimicking the above.
1. A microparticle with a support structure and CD28-specific superagonistic monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) bonded to the support structure, wherein the surface of the support structure is formed by an organic polymer, which is selected from the group consisting of polystyrene, polyurethane, polyester, polyvinylpyridine, polyvinylamine, polyethyleneimine, chitosan, and mixtures of such polymers.
2. A microparticle according to claim 1 , wherein the organic polymer comprises a reactive group that is glycidylether.
3. A microparticle according to claim 1 , wherein the organic polymer is surface activated by treatment with an activation reagent, referred to as p-toluenesulfonyl chloride.
4. A microparticle according to claim 1 , wherein the surface of the support structure (measured by means of the BET method) is 1 to 10 times the geometric surface, assumed as a smooth sphere surface.
5. A microparticle according to claim 1 , wherein the surface of the support structure (measured by means of the BET method) is 1 to 4 times the geometric surface, assumed as a smooth sphere surface.
