Aluminium Adjuvants in Vaccines: Missing Information

I have been researching human exposure to aluminium for over thirty-five years. I am (sometimes affectionately) known as Mr Aluminium. About ten years ago, I became interested in aluminium adjuvants and specifically how they help to potentiate the immune response in vaccination. Funded initially by the Medical Research Council (Nanotoxicity of Aluminium Adjuvants) we set […]

The Toxicity of Aluminium Adjuvants

It would seem that I am a rare breed. I research the safety of aluminium adjuvants used in vaccines (See; Safety concerns around aluminium adjuvants). In doing so, I acknowledge that not all vaccines that include an aluminium adjuvant are completely safe for all recipients. This is not an opinion that is openly shared by […]

Epilepsy and Aluminium

There is a long (and perhaps regrettable) history of the injection of aluminium salts into brain tissue in animal (including primates) models of human epilepsy. With this in mind, it may be surprising that our recent research (https://www.mdpi.com/1660-4601/16/12/2129) is the first to measure and identify aluminium in human epilepsy. We present a case report of […]

Camelford: Britain’s Forgotten Aluminium Scandal

Last year was the 30th anniversary of Britain’s most infamous pollution event when 20 tonnes of aluminium sulphate were inadvertently added to the potable water supplying the town of Camelford, Cornwall. Over 20,000 people were exposed to highly toxic concentrations of aluminium in drinking water over an extended time. A number of inadequate investigations into […]

Aluminium in infant formula

We reported previously that some widely-used infant formulas are heavily contaminated with the known neurotoxin, aluminium. Infant formulas are the only form of nutrition for the majority of neonates and, thereafter, infants up to 12 months of age. Through using infant formulas, parents may be inadvertently feeding their baby with up to 600 μg of […]
