Yeasts in nanotechnology-enabled oral vaccine and gene delivery

Oral vaccine and gene delivery systems must be engineered to withstand several different physiological environments, such as those present in the oral cavity, stomach, and jejunum, each of which exhibits varying pH levels and enzyme distributions. Additionally, these systems must be designed to ensu...

description Oral vaccine and gene delivery systems must be engineered to withstand several different physiological environments, such as those present in the oral cavity, stomach, and jejunum, each of which exhibits varying pH levels and enzyme distributions.
