2 English reference adjuvant

Adjuvant refers to the general name of substances that enhance the specific immune response to antigens by giving nonspecific * * * to the immune system, also known as adjuvant. For example, although it is an antigen with weak immunogenicity, if it is adsorbed on bentonite particles and alum precipitation particles, it will be easily swallowed by macrophages to enhance its immunogenicity. The antigen solution and Freund's adjuvant are stirred and mixed to be opaque; Then the proliferation and reaction of macrophages and lymphocytes will be strengthened with the storage time of antigen at the injection site. Endotoxin of Gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli and Salmonella, etc.). ) are also strong adjuvants.
