What is Keyhole Limpet Hemocyanin (KLH)?
Important immune-stimulating protein.
Only source is scarce marine mollusk.
40+ years safe use in clinical immunology.
Vital in preclinical and clinical research.
Rapid growth in immunotherapy = High demand.
KLH: A Complex Molecule
A single KLH subunit can be an immunotherapy carrier
