ABSTRACT:
An enhanced immune response to antigens, particularly normally weakly-immunogenic viral antigens, such as the HA antigen from influenza virus, is achieved by coadministering the antigen in two different physio-chemical forms, particularly to enable presentation of antigen both by B cells and accessory cells.
