Abstract: A pharmaceutical formulation for parenteral or mucosal administration of antigens and/or vaccines to humans and animals, comprising monglyceride preparations having at least 80% monoglyceride content and where the acyl group contains from 6 to 24 carbon atoms, together with fatty acids where the number of carbon atoms may be varied between 4 and 22.

Abstract: An adjuvant for use in a vaccine, the adjuvant comprising one or more cationic substances such as, e.g., acyl amines comprising from 4 to 30 carbon atoms, 5 quaternary ammonium compounds derived from acyl amines, cationic acyl amides, amino acids conjugated to an acyl group, etc., and mixtures thereof.

Abstract: A tuberculosis (TB) vaccine composition is disclosed. The composition comprises, as adjuvant, one or more substances selected from a) monoglyceride preparations having at least 80% monoglyceride content and b) fatty acids of the general formula CH3—(CH2)n—COOH where “n” may be varied between 4 and 22, and where the acyl chain may contain one or more unsaturated bonds, and as immunizing component, inactivated, e.g. heat killed or formalin killed, Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacteria.

Abstract: A vaccine formulation against a microorganism is disclosed. The formulation comprises: as adjuvant, one or more substances selected from a) monoglyceride preparations having at least 80% monoglyceride content and b) fatty acids of the general formula CH3—(CH2)n—COOH where “n” may be varied between 4 and 22, and where the acyl chain may contain one or more unsaturated bonds, and as immunizing component, an immunogenic product consisting of antigenically active carbohydrate moieties (ACM) derived from said microorganism which are each covalently coupled, possibly via identical divalent bridge groups, to immunologically active carriers (IAC). The vaccine formulation is e.g. against Mycobacterium tuberculosis and in that case the formulation may comprise, as adjuvant, a mixture of mono-olein and oleic acid, and possibly soybean oil, and, as immunizing component, lipoarabinomamman-tetanus toxoid (LAM-TT).
