Abstract

The invention relates to new water-soluble agents which are effective as immunizing adjuvants. These adjuvant agents are the methyl, ethyl or propyl esters of 2-(2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-D-glucopyranosyl)-D-propionyl-L-alanyl-D-isoglu tamine and of 2-(2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-D-glucopyranosyl)-D-propionyl-L-alanyl-D-glutam ic acid, the 2-(2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-D-glucopyranosyl)-D-propionyl-L-alanyl-D-(.alph a.-methylamide)-glutamic and 2-(2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-D-glucopyranosyl)-D-propionyl-L-seryl-D-isoglut amine, the 2-(2-acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-D-glucopyranosyl)-D-propionyl-L-seryl-D-glutami c acid and their derivatives. They are particularly useful to prepare adjuvant medicinal compositions, used for increasing the efficiency of vaccines.
