Adjuvants.

A number of adjuvants of importance in veterinary vaccines are reviewed. These include mineral salt adjuvants, oil adjuvants, hydrophilic and hydrophobic bloc polymers, hydrocarbons and surface active agents. The current and future applications of these substances and their possible modes of action are discussed. Creation of an adjuvant register by the newly formed European Adjuvant Group should facilitate accumulation of information on adjuvants.
