Abstract
The present invention relates to microneedle vaccine formulations, as well as methods of use thereof to provide animals, including canines, protective immunity against infection and disease caused by rabies viruses. Once placed onto the skin of the animals, the microneedle formulations dissolve quickly into the surrounding skin, where the antigens then elicit in the animals high and protective levels of rabies virus neutralizing antibodies.
