Abstract
The high global burden of tuberculosis (TB) underscores the urgent need for an effective TB vaccine since the only licensed Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccine is ineffective in preventing adult pulmonary TB and affords no protection against latent TB infection (LTBI). Herein we investigated the potential of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) antigen proteins AEC comprised of Ag85b and ESAT6-CFP10 proteins in conjunction with aluminum (Al) and...
