    The adjuvant - [Squalene].
    According to Meryl [Nass], M.D., an authority on the anthrax vaccine,
    A novel feature of the two H1N1 vaccines being developed by companies Novartis and GlaxoSmithKline is the addition of squalene-containing adjuvants to boost immunogenicity and dramatically reduce the amount of viral antigen needed. This translates to much faster production of desired vaccine quantities.v
    Novartiss proprietary [squalene] adjuvant for their [H1N1 vaccine] is MF59. [Glaxos] is ASO3. MF59 has yet to be approved by the FDA for use in any U.S. vaccine, despite its history of use in other countries.
    Per Dr. Nass, there are only three vaccines in existence using an approved squalene adjuvant. None of the three are approved for use in the U.S.
