Quantitation and determination of antigen specificity of systemic and mucosal immune responses to influenza vaccination is beneficial for future vaccine development. Previous methods to acquire this information were costly, time consuming and sample exhaustive. The benefits of suspension microbead array (MBA) analysis are numerous. The multiplex capabilities of the system conserve time, money and sample, while generating statistically powerful data.
