Abstract

MANY pathogens escape the body's immune system because their surface antigenic determinants elicit an immune response that is too weak, temporary, or of the wrong type. A plausible solution to this type of problem is to put the antigenic determinant specific for the pathogen on a suitable carrier and present it to the host immune system in a way that will elicit a protective immune response of the right type, time course, and strength. This has been called the "chemical vaccine" approach¹.
