• An adjuvant is a substance that, when combined with the antigen, serves to enhance the immune response against the antigen. Freund’s adjuvants are the preferred adjuvant of choice for use in antibody production, and Pacific Immunology uses its own premium line of AdjuLite® adjuvants for all immunizations. AdjuLite® Complete Freund’s Adjuvant is used only for the first immunization and contains mycobacteria, which stimulates the host’s immune system. AdjuLite® Incomplete Freund’s Adjuvant is used for all subsequent immunizations.
