Muktavac^® 40

Muktavac^® 40 is a concentrated and purified mineral oil ready to use adjuvant for making water in oil (W/O) - type emulsion with immunogenic antigens, based on aqueous : oil - 60 : 40 Wt/ Wt basis.
Water-in-oil (W/O) emulsions are made up of small aqueous-antigens that are entrapped within oil droplets. Here, the light mineral oil is in continuous phase. Generally in a W/O type emulsion, oil which is a continuous phase is in excess and water which is a dispersed phase is in small proportion but in this product, Oil phase being in small proportion gives an W/O emulsion with very low conductance.

Muktavac^® 40 provides one step emulsification for a stable and consistent vaccine formulation which is easy to inject. Muktavac^® 40 adjuvants ensure optimal antigen persistence in the tissue. Muktavac^® 40 adjuvanted antigens ensure very strong, uniform and long lasting immune response.

Muktavac^® 40 is most suitable for weak immunogenic antigens and is mostly recommended for cost-effective vaccine production, by optimizing the antigen quantity in the multi-component or polyvalent or combined inactivated vaccine formulations.
