ABSTRACT:
Methods of rapidly generating and analyzing a plurality of polypeptides are disclosed. More specifically, libraries and arrays of polypeptides are assayed in order to determine their individual immunogenic effect. Based on the immunogenic effect of polypeptides, specific subunit vaccines can be developed.
