Antibodies, vaccines and adjuvants

Few substances have had a greater positive impact upon human healthcare management than antibodies, vaccines and adjuvants. For most of this century, these immunological agents have enjoyed widespread medical application, predominantly for the treatment/prevention of infectious diseases. As a group, they are often referred to as biologies (Chapter 1). [Pg.371]

Adjuvants are usually co-administered with the vaccine preparation, in order to enhance the immune response against the vaccine. [Pg.371]
