What are adjuvants?
Adjuvants have been used for decades to help enhance the immune response to vaccine antigens. Most of us understand the fundamentals of vaccines: introduce part of a pathogen to our immune system, in order to elicit a specific, lasting immune response that protects us from a future infection. Adjuvants are vaccine ingredients that can help induce a strong immune response in certain formulations. Today, aluminium salts are the most widely used adjuvants, whilst scientists and vaccine manufacturers are continuously innovating to expand the repertoire of available adjuvant options.

Our selection of aluminium-based and liposomal adjuvants, such as our newly available CAF range, can help improve the effectiveness of your vaccine formulations.](/mediaassets/images/health-care/health-care-new-website/adjuvants-brochure/adjuvant-systems/shutterstock-1873843348-as-filter.jpg?h=432&iar=0&w=768&la=en-GB&hash=A417AA810C6AE2234A6C44EC7E05A503)
Vaccine delivery systems
![Stimulation of the immune response is crucial in offering pathogen protection. Our range of pattern recognition receptor agonists (TLR, CLR, etc) and saponins act as immunostimulatory agents to enhance the immune response, and therefore support the efficacy of your vaccine formulations.](/mediaassets/images/health-care/health-care-new-website/adjuvants-brochure/adjuvant-systems/shutterstock-1859217856-as-filter.jpg?h=512&iar=0&w=768&la=en-GB&hash=DBB9122B7B6271883AFC02D7F6DA0B11)
Immunostimulators
![Purity is an incredibly important factor for successful vaccine development. Our Super Refined excipients are ultra purified to remove impurities that are commonly found in standard compendial grade excipients, optimising the performance of pharmaceutical formulations.](/mediaassets/images/health-care/health-care-new-website/adjuvants-brochure/adjuvant-systems/shutterstock-1864252561-as-filter.jpg?h=512&iar=0&w=768&la=en-GB&hash=1DA9B38DDC2A8378A5DB1500BD6A91E3)
Formulation compounds for delivery
![Our aseptic process ensures we can deliver sterile aluminium according to GMP EudraLex Volume 4. We are one of the only companies worldwide to operate at such premium standards. Our Quality Management System is continually improved through established metrics.](/mediaassets/images/health-care/health-care-new-website/adjuvants-brochure/adjuvant-systems/dsc00382.jpg?h=512&iar=0&w=768&la=en-GB&hash=2FFF3517A6E6565C05CD6A6B940DE4D5)
