Compared to traditional aluminium salt-based adjuvants, nanoparticles may improve vaccine efficacy and reduce encountered side effects. Nanoparticles were synthesised and their physicochemical properties were investigated. Their immunostimulating properties were investigated in vitro and in vivo and compared to traditional aluminium salt-based adjuvants.
