ABSTRACT

The definition of adjuvant in immunology is the non-specific immunopotentiator, which only performs auxiliary functions. With the appearance of various adjuvants and their successful application in some vaccines against infectious disease, they have received extensive attention and been studied in-depth. This review focused on the types, functions and prospects of adjuvants used in tuberculosis vaccines, aiming to provide reference for adjuvant selection and development in future.
