Abstract

When ELISA antibody titer dropped in chickens intramuscularly inoculated with an oil vaccine, recombinant HA and NP antigens prepared using gene recombinant technology were orally administered in combination with synthetic oligo CpG as a mucosal adjuvant to the chickens. Even when the immune response induced with the oil vaccine was impaired, the antibody titer was re-induced by orally administering the recombinant HA and NP antigens, and synthetic CpG-ODN in combination.

Claims (8)

1 . An immunization material comprising an avian influenza virus antigen and a mucosal adjuvant effective for oral administration.

2 . The immunization material of claim 1 , wherein the avian influenza virus antigens are recombinant HA antigen and recombinant NP antigen.

3 . The immunization material of claim 1 for preventing avian influenza.

4 . The immunization material of claim 1 , which is used by oral administration.

5 . The immunization material of claim 1 , which is used for booster immunization.

6 . A method for re-inducing immunity induced by an initial immunization, wherein an immunization material of claim 1 is additionally administered to an animal administered with an avian influenza vaccine.

7 . The method of claim 6 , wherein the animal is a bird.

8 . The method of claim 6 , wherein the booster administration is achieved by oral administration.
