  1. Pairwise comparison of responder frequencies to all antigens was performed with Holm’s correction. Prior to performing the pairwise test, Fisher’s Exact test for multiple comparison of proportions of positive volunteers to the six peptide pools showed that the proportion of positive responders was significantly different between at least two pairs of antigens (p < 0.05). Proportions of positive responders for antigen pools are shown in Figure 4.
