Quil-A™
A versatile immunostimulatory saponin that’s widely used as a potent veterinary adjuvant, Quil-A can work against both intra- and extra-cellular pathogens, stimulating innate and Th-mediated adaptive immune responses.
Manufactured for over 40 years (as part of the acquired Brenntag Biosector,) Quil-A is part of Croda’s veterinary adjuvant portfolio. This natural extract is from the bark of the Quillaja Saponaria Molina tree. It is purified and contains a concentrated and heterogeneous mixture of over 100 saponin components. It has a strong affinity for cholesterol and can combine to form cage-like immunostimulating complexes (ISCOMs). They are known to stimulate strong cellular and humoral immune responses.
Quil-A is used in various veterinary vaccines, for farm animals as well as companion animals, for example, cattle, pigs, sheep, poultry, cats, and dogs.
Quil-A is not applicable to human vaccines due to its toxicity profile. For human vaccine applications, look at QS 21, our potent immunostimulatory saponin derived from Quil-A.

Our Quil-A is intended for use in veterinary vaccines only.
