The aim of the study was to evaluate the immune response against Moraxella catarrhalis and Candida albicans antigens in mice (BALB/c) immunized by GALT system. The ELISA and immunofluorescence tests were employed for checking of mice sera activity in the presence of used antigens. Both sources of antigens were efficacious in specific antibody generation by GALT system. Furthermore, obtained results showed cross reactivity between Candida albicans antigens and anti Moraxella catarrhalis sera and also between Moraxella catarrhalis antigens and anti Candida albicans sera.
