    GlossaryProtein Subunit Vaccine

    uses purified pathogen proteins to stimulate immune response

    A Protein Subunit Vaccine is a type of vaccine that includes only the essential parts of the virus or bacteria, specifically the proteins that stimulate the immune system. Unlike traditional vaccines that use whole pathogens, these vaccines use purified pieces of the pathogen, which reduces the risk of side effects while still effectively training the immune system to recognize and combat the actual pathogen if encountered.
