Abstract

Abstract Multiple antigen peptide systems are described in which a large number of antigens are bound to the functional groups of a dendritic core molecule providing a high concentration of antigen in a low molecular volume. The products are useful for producing chemically defined univalent or multivalent vaccines and in diagnostic tests.
