Concentration determination of a recombinant vaccine antigen adsorbed onto an alum adjuvant by chemiluminescent nitrogen detection.
Article in Pharmaceutical research, 2005. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purposeA chemiluminescent nitrogen detector (CLND) has been evaluated for determining the concentration of an aluminum-adsorbed recombinant vaccine antigen.
methodsQuantification of the antigen was based upon several nitrogen-containing compounds used to calibrate the CLND. All calibrants (6.75-400 microg/ml) generated linear standard curves, with slopes being directly proportional to the % nitrogen. The limit of quantification (LOQ) was determined to be 6.75 microg/ml based on the performance of the antigen standard curve, and the limit of detection (LOD) was defined by setting the CLND minimum peak area to 40,000 U. The CLND was capable of analyzing antigen-adjuvant suspensions (adsorbed + unbound antigen) without any sample pretreatment. To measure unbound antigen, the suspension was centrifuged and an aliquot of supernatant removed for analysis; the difference between these two measurements was the amount of adsorbed antigen.
resultsThe adjuvant exhibited no significant matrix effect. Samples were analyzed in triplicate with observed relative standard deviation values ranging from 0.065% to 10.0%. The most accurate concentrations of the antigen were recovered relative to the antigen itself and to glycine as standards.
conclusionThis methodology provides a direct measurement of the concentration of a vaccine antigen adsorbed onto an aluminum adjuvant.
