Fig. 1: ASCA separation of IgG antibody profiles by vaccine recipient.

In the left-hand panels, each point represents a profile derived from IgG reactivity against antigens across the array. Comp 1 and Comp 2 represent the first and second principal components in the ASCA analysis. Confidence ellipsoids are plotted that reflect the estimated variation of the effect level means at 40, 68 and 95%22. Open symbols represent individual serum samples; ellipsoid centres are plotted as filled symbols. Righthand panels show the antigens with the highest loadings for each component. A ASCA calculation with all antigens included. B As A but with NHBA, Factor H binding protein (fHbp), GNA2091 and GNA1030 removed.
