Study

name:	Helix stabilization in the C-terminal peptide of chicken riboflavin carrier protein enhances immunogenicity and prolongs contraceptive potential as an epitope-based vaccine in female rats.
description:	Adoptive transfer of epitope-specific antibodies lead to inhibition of pregnancy and deliver of pups. No pups were delivered. Adoptive transfer of antibodies specific for an analog of the epitope (HAEQKKLLKFEALEQEKGKE) had the same effect.
