A vaccine adjuvant and immunogenic composition may be described herein. The vaccine adjuvant may comprise cell wall fragments of the genus, and more particularly, of. The immunogenic composition may include the vaccine adjuvant conjugated to an antigen. For example, cell wall fragments of(herein also referred to as MAF) may be conjugated to an antigen targeting Gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH). The MAF-antigen conjugate may be delivered for the purposes of treatment through one of several methods, including intramuscular injection, naso-pharyngeal, or oral.

Microfluidizedfragments as an adjuvant and carrier for mucosal vaccine delivery

A latch assembly for securing a gate or other pivotal structure that includes a pair of independently retractable outwardly biased latch members carried by a latch carriage. When in an extended position, the latch members define a striker retention slot. Cooperation of the latch members in the extended position provides for retention of a striker member in the striker retention slot. The latch members are supported by rods that pass through the latch carriage.

An exposure indicating apparatus and indicating method includes a sensor having a property responsive to a concentration of a target species. A processing device generates a concentration signal as a function of the property and an indicator is activated as a function of the concentration signal. The indicator is activated at a signaling rate indicative of an exposure indicating apparatus operating within predefined design parameters and at an exposure signaling rate indicative of the concentration attaining a predetermined threshold concentration. The indicator may also be activated at a signaling rate indicative of an exposure indicating apparatus operating outside of the predefined design parameters, and after the predetermined threshold concentration is attained, the indicator may be activated at an exposure signaling rate which varies as a function of the concentration signal.

Exposure indicator with continuous alarm signal indicating multiple

An exposure indicating apparatus for monitoring air flowing along a flow-through path extending from the external environment through an air purifying respirator cartridge and into a face mask. A processor housing is releasably attached to the flow-through path so that it can be removed allowing ambient air to enter the flow-through path at the attachment location. A reversible sensor with at least one property responsive to a concentration of a target species within an environment is in fluid communication with the flow-through path. A processing device in the processor housing generates a concentration signal as a function of the at least one property of the reversible sensor. An indicator provides an active indication in response to the concentration signal. A flow-through housing may form a portion of the flow-through path. The flow-through housing may be interposed between the air purifying cartridge and the face mask. The reversible sensor may be located in the processor housing, the air purifying respirator cartridge or the flow-through housing. The sensor is coupled to the processing device by a coupler.
