What are aluminum-based adjuvants commonly used for?
Aluminum-based adjuvants are commonly used in many human vaccines to enhance immune response.
What is the role of the physical adsorption of antigen in vaccine immunogenicity?
The physical adsorption of antigen may play a role in vaccine immunogenicity and is a useful marker of vaccine product quality and consistency.
What physicochemical properties of aluminum phosphate (AlPO4) are important to study?
Particle size and chemical composition are important physicochemical properties of aluminum phosphate (AlPO4) that are important to study.
How long have aluminum salts been safely used in vaccines?
Aluminum salts have been safely used in vaccines for more than 70 years.
What were aluminum salts initially used for in vaccines?
Aluminum salts were initially used in the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s with diphtheria and tetanus vaccines to strengthen the body's immune response to these vaccines.
What are aluminum-containing adjuvants?
Aluminum-containing adjuvants are vaccine ingredients that have been used in vaccines since the 1930s to help the body build stronger immunity against the germ in the vaccine.
What does previous scientific research show about aluminum exposure from following the recommended vaccine schedule?
Previous scientific research has shown that the amount of aluminum exposure in people who follow the recommended vaccine schedule is low and is not readily absorbed by the body.
How can the vaccine adjuvant be effectively controlled throughout the manufacturing process?
The vaccine adjuvant can be effectively controlled throughout the manufacturing process by monitoring key product attributes such as particle size and chemical composition of aluminum phosphate (AlPO4).
Why is it important to monitor the key product attributes of the vaccine adjuvant?
Monitoring the key product attributes of the vaccine adjuvant is important to ensure product quality and consistency.
