Overview

Euvax B is a recombinant hepatitis B vaccine consisting of purified hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg). The antigen is produced using recombinant DNA technology in yeast cells (*Saccharomyces cerevisiae*) and is adsorbed onto an aluminum hydroxide adjuvant to enhance immunogenicity. Originally developed by LG Life Sciences in 1991 and distributed globally by Sanofi Pasteur, the vaccine is indicated for active immunization against infection caused by all known subtypes of the hepatitis B virus. It was the first Korean hepatitis B vaccine to receive WHO prequalification (1996) and has been registered in over 60 countries. In clinical research, it is frequently used as a challenge dose to evaluate long-term immune memory in children previously primed with hexavalent vaccines such as Hexaxim or Infanrix hexa.
