 AB    MF59 is a safe, practical, and potent adjuvant for use with human
       vaccines. The formulation is easily manufactured, may be sterilized by
       filtration, and is both compatible and efficacious with all antigens
       tested to date. MF59 has been shown to be a potent stimulator of
       cellular and humoral responses to subunit antigens in both animal models
       and clinical studies. Toxicology studies in animal models and Phase
       I-III studies in humans have demonstrated the safety of MF59 with HSV,
       HIV, and influenza vaccines.
