Immunostimulators

Priming the immune system through the use of tailored immunostimulators is an important component of vaccine development. Discover what selection works best for you.

Prime effective immune responses

Elicit an amplified immune response through specific antigen presentation

Immunostimulators directly influence the immune response. Your selection of immunostimulators will direct the type of immune response. For example, whether the resultant response will be Th1, Th2, Th17 or T-cell mediated immunity.

As a result, they can play important roles in vaccine development by defining the type of immunity obtained (the immune fingerprint).

Explore our range of immunostimulators to fulfil your vaccine's immune correlates of protection.

TLR agonists

Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are a class of proteins that play fundamental roles in innate immunity. They are known as excellent adjuvant targets, having been part of several approved vaccines, such as for cervical cancer, shingles and Hepatitis B. Their discovery was honoured with the 2011 Nobel Prize. By mimicking the structure of pathogens, different compounds acting as TLR agonists can help stimulate the immune system.

Saponins

Derived from the bark of Quillaja saponaria Molina, these natural glycosides can act as potent adjuvants. Their unique ability to stimulate Th1 immune responses and the production of cytotoxic T-cells makes them valuable vaccine adjuvant candidates for both human and veterinary purposes.
QS 21 Featured

QS 21

A powerful immunostimulatory saponin that acts as a potent vaccine adjuvant, QS 21 can stimulate both cell-mediated (Th1) and humoral (Th2) immune responses
Quil-A Featured

Quil-A™

A versatile immunostimulatory saponin that’s widely used as a potent veterinary adjuvant, Quil-A can work against both intra- and extra-cellular pathogens, stimulating innate and Th-mediated adaptive...
