Compare your batches based on our in-house technology standard
Develop, optimize and evaluate non-animal methods that cover key-parameters for demonstrating batch consistency, safety and efficacy.
Vaccines are among the most effective approaches to prevent and control many infectious diseases. The evolution of vaccine development has seen a move from whole organisms to recombinant proteins and finally to the epitope, the tiniest but the most immunologically relevant antigen sequence. This quest for minimalist vaccinology has seen a return for more complexity and design vaccines containing many epitopes. Indeed, the development of effective vaccines is based on the capability to induce immunity against multiple antigenic targets or multiple strain variants. However, the similarities between the strain sequences may induce some difficulties to differentiate them by usual techniques such as ELISA and be able to quantify them.
In this regard, the main challenges are to characterize, detect and quantify your antigen vaccines, sometimes very close, to push your early drug development to a future reglementary approval. Most of common vaccine development have failed due to a mistake in the early discovery steps.
Support by MS-based protein analysis we investigate vaccine development issues. The monitoring of vaccine stability and vaccine potency must be assessed by a sensitive analytical method like LC-MS.
In ANAQUANT, we can develop customized analytical methods from early antigen characterization to bioprocess monitoring and control quality of vaccine formulation.
