The polymerization conditions for the incorporation of virus antigens into poly(methyl methacrylate) particles were investigated. The dose and the dose rate appeared to be the relevant factors for optimizing the polymerization conditions. It was concluded that a dose of 500 krads at a dose rate of 2.2 krads min−1 leads to a satisfactory product. With these irradiation conditions the antibody inducing properties of fluid influenza and polio vaccines were not affected. Influenza virions incorporated into poly(methyl methacrylate) particles exhibited strong adjuvant properties during revaccination.
