10.Many vaccines contain small amounts of inactivated antigen or antigen protein. Most vaccines (like the vaccines for hepatitis A and hepatitis B) also contain an adjuvant- an ingredient of a vaccine that helps create a stronger immune response in the patient’s body. Adjuvants work by triggering inflammation at the injection site. What are the very specific steps that an adjuvant (and the inflammation it causes) plays in the establishment of a vaccine’s effectiveness, and a “strong immune response”? Create a well- labeled sketch/flow chart in your answer.

10.Many vaccines contain small amounts of inactivated antigen or antigen protein. Most vaccines (like the
vaccines for hepatitis A and hepatitis B) also contain an adjuvant- an ingredient of a vaccine that helps create a
stronger immune response in the patient’s body. Adjuvants work by triggering inflammation at the injection site.
What are the very specific steps that an adjuvant (and the inflammation it causes) plays in the establishment of
a vaccine’s effectiveness, and a “strong immune response”? Create a well- labeled sketch/flow chart in
