| freund's adjuvant | The complete version of this immunostimulating adjuvant contains heat-killed tuberculosis bacteria emulsified in white mineral oil. It is used in immunological research involving lab animals, but not in humans, since it could cause allergic responses or autoimmune problems. The bacterial cells are omitted in the incomplete verson of the adjuvant. (09 Oct 1997) |

| Freund's adjuvant |
(noun) water-in-oil emulsion used experimentally for stimulating a vigorous immune response to an antigen (that is in the aqueous phase). Complete Freund's adjuvant contains heat-killed tubercle bacilli; these are omitted from Freund's incomplete adjuvant. Theoretically, any species could be used, but the mouse is the preferred recipient because of its convenience, availability and rapid breeding

| Freund's a. |
a water-in-oil emulsion incorporating antigen, in the aqueous phase, into lightweight paraffin oil with the aid of an emulsifying agent. On injection, this mixture (Freund's incomplete a.) induces strong persistent antibody formation. The addition of killed, dried mycobacteria, e.g., Mycobacterium butyricum, to the oil phase (Freund's complete a.) elicits cell-mediated immunity (delayed hypersensitivity), as well as humoral antibody formation.
