Vaccination has proven to be the most effective method for the prevention and control of infectious diseases in the animals and birds. The success of vaccination depends on many factors but one of the important factor is the selection of most suitable and efficient adjuvant. An adjuvant is an ingredient of the vaccine which is used to improve the immune response in the animal’s body to vaccines. The inclusion of adjuvant to the vaccine preparation results in the abrupt stimulation of the immune system, production of the stronger immune response, activation of the specific type of immunity and increasing the half life of vaccine antigen. Previously, the role of adjuvants were poorly understood but with the increasing knowledge of the mechanism of action of adjuvants and the immune system, new adjuvants are being formulated that are safe and most effective against existing and emerging animal diseases. In this review, we will discuss about the current available adjuvants for animal vaccines with focus on their mechanism of action. In addition, we will also learn about the challenges and opportunities in the development of animal vaccine adjuvants.
