Vaccine design is a subject that has raised many concerns throughout the recent years, since specialists first started to talk about it. While there are many contradictory opinions about what does vaccine design really means, you should know that recently, a fascinating book has been released, that will teach you everything you want to know about vaccine design. It is called ‘Vaccine Design: Innovative Approaches and Novel Strategies’, and it is now available for everyone who wants to buy it.

‘Vaccine Design : Innovative Approaches and Novel Strategies’ has been published in November 2010, but it has only been released for the public in February 2011, by Caister Academic Press. The editors of ‘Vaccine Design : Innovative Approaches and Novel Strategies’ are Rino Rappuoli and Fabio Bagnoli, who conducted this research book in Siena, Italy. They are globally renown for their work in the vaccine and immunology field, so it comes as no surprise that they have decided to go further, and to approach the vaccine design topic as well.

‘Vaccine Design : Innovative Approaches and Novel Strategies’ includes an Introduction and 16 interesting chapters: Overview of Vaccine Strategies; Designing Vaccines in the Era of Genomics; New Analytical Approaches for Measuring Protective Capacity of Antibodies; New Frontiers in the Chemistry of Glycoconjugate Vaccines; Bacterial Protein Toxin Used in Vaccines; Adjuvants; Mucosal Vaccines; Intralymphatic Vaccination; The First Vaccine Obtained Through Reverse Vaccinology: The Serogroup B Meningococcus Vaccine; Vaccines for Neglected Diseases; Vaccines to Combat Pseudomonas aeruginosa Infections in Immunocompromised Patients; Nosocomial Infections: Staphylococcus aureus; Toward the Development of a Universal Vaccine Against Group B Streptococcus; Vaccines Against Streptococcus pneumoniae; Veterinary Vaccines with a Focus on Bovine Mastitis; and last, but not least, Vaccines against Newly Emerging Viral Diseases: The Example of SARS.

As you can see, ‘Vaccine Design : Innovative Approaches and Novel Strategies’ comprises numerous reviews about the cutting-edge research in vaccine design and in the development of this field. The first part of the book focuses on technologies and approaches used for new vaccines, and the second part is keen on the development of new vaccines which are meant to replace the current ones, or to complement them. If you want to find out more about vaccine design, you can easily purchase ‘Vaccine Design : Innovative Approaches and Novel Strategies’, the best book in the domain, which is available even online.
