When I worked in a Vet Pharmaceutical firm, we used aluminium hydroxide 
as adjuvant. It is simmilar to those used for stomach upset. I don't 
remember the concentration of Al but it looks like gelly stuff. It 
simply mix with the dead bacteria together that is all. I even don't 
know how it work. Is it a mitogen or just act like a sustained release 
factor?
