"The new claims circumscribe all of NanoBio’s anti-infective and dermatological products, as well as our intranasal and intramuscular vaccine adjuvants,” NanoBio CEO and founder James Baker said in a statement.
NanoBio Corp., a University of Michigan spinoff that has several pharmaceutical products in various stages of testing, announced Wednesday that it has closed on an investment round of $10 million, capping its series B round of funding at $22 million.
The present invention provides methods and compositions for the stimulation of immune responses. Specifically, the present invention provides methods and compositions for the use of nanoemulsion compounds as mucosal adjuvants to induce immunity against environmental pathogens. Accordingly, in some embodiments, the present invention provides nanoemulsion vaccines comprising a nanoemulsion and an inactivated pathogen or protein derived from the pathogen. The present invention thus provides improved vaccines against a variety of environmental and human-released pathogens.
