Research note

Table I.

AgB-specific IgG1/IgG2a reactivity index (R.I.) ratios in mice immunized with EgAgB8/2-DNA using different routes of inoculations. Serum samples were collected 50 days following initial inoculations and were assayed for AgB-specific IgG1 and IgG2a.

Route of inoculation	R.I. ratio IgG1/IgG2a^*
Intramuscular	0.04
Intranasal	0.25
Epidermal gene gun	0.58

^*

Statistically significant differences in ratios were seen among the three routes.
