Developing scalable upstream workflows for recombinant and viral vaccine processes

Vaccine manufacturing is responding to challenges for increasing safety assurance and responsiveness in order to reduce the impact of pandemic such as SARS-CoV-2. Therefore, in-depth knowledge of microorganism pathogenicity leads to develop new type of vaccines such as recombinant and viral vaccines. In this presentation we will review the current main upstream vaccine production processes, considering the choice of expression system, the means by which the biological preparation is introduced into the production cell and how Pall’s flexible single-use bioreactors support rapid process development, scale-up and safeguard the quality of life-protecting vaccines and help assure compliance with cGMP.
