Patent

CA 2086097

The present invention comprises adjuvants which, when admixed with an antigen and administered into a human or animal, will induce a more intense immune response to the antigen than when the antigen is administered alone. In many cases, the adjuvant that is described as the present invention will increase overall titer of antibodies of a specific isotype which are specific for the antigen. For example, in mice, when the adjuvant of the present invention is admixed with a conventional antigen, the isotype that is induced in the mouse is changed from a predominantly IgG1 isotype to the more protective IgG2 isotype and, in some cases, IgG3 isotype. Thus, by practicing the present invention, one can improve the overall protective effect of conventional vaccines.
