IMMUNOSTIMULATORY PREPARATION AND COSMETIC, FOOD, FEED ADDITIVE, AND QUASI-PHARMACEUTICAL PRODUCT CONTAINING THE IMMUNOSTIMULATORY PREPARATION
Provided is an immunostimulatory preparation which is a protein obtained by fusing a bacteria-derived heat shock protein (HSP: heat shock protein) and a viral peptide antigen, and enables induction of a highly diverse immunoglobulin by simultaneously stimulating nasal, respiratory, and oral administration. Provided are a feed, a feed additive, and an environmental symbiotic preparation for livestock, or a cosmetic, a food, and a quasi-pharmaceutical product for humans, which enable symbiosis with an environmental microorganism containing the immunostimulatory preparation. Provided are a preparation, a cosmetic for humans, a food, and a quasi-pharmaceutical product that enable symbiosis with environmental microorganisms utilizing livestock-derived IgA, IgG, and IgY among the immunoglobulins.
Chimeric immunogenic polypeptides
Provided herein are chimeric polypeptides that may be used, e.g., for the diagnosis of or vaccination against Ehrlichia chaffeensis and/or Ehrlichia canis.
