MIT: Polylactic-glycolic acid copolymer microparticles make “self-enhancing” vaccine.

Scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) report in the recent journal Science Advances that they are developing a single-dose self-boosting vaccine. After the vaccine is injected into the human body, it can be released multiple times without the need for a booster shot. The new vaccine is expected to be used against diseases ranging from measles to Covid-19. It is reported that this new vaccine is made of poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) particles. PLGA is a degradable functional polymer organic compound, which is non-toxic and has good biocompatibility. It has been approved for use in Implants, sutures, repair materials, etc.
