Strategies to improve vaccine efficacy are still required. The immunogenicity of DNA
vaccines is strongly improved by electroporation (EP). The skin is populated with a wide
variety of immune cells, making it an attractive tissue for vaccine delivery. Here we describe
a method for the EP-mediated intradermal delivery of DNA vaccines in nonhuman primates,
as a model for preclinical development of human vaccines, using noninvasive needleless
electrodes.
