Breakthrough Technology and Advantages of Vaccine Oral Dissolving Film
The team of Maria Croyle, Professor of Pharmaceutical Sciences at the University of Texas at Austin, has developed a dissolvable oral vaccine technology that is believed to dramatically improve global access to vaccines and other biologic drugs.
1.Technical principle and breakthrough
Traditional vaccines need to be stored in cold storage, otherwise it is easy to lead to its degeneration and loss of efficacy. However, Professor Croyle's team achieved a breakthrough by stably storing live viruses and other biologic drugs in a soluble oral-soluble membrane, which allows vaccines to be taken orally without refrigeration. The technique is inspired by the ability of insect DNA to be preserved in amber for millions of years.
2.Advantages of Vaccine Oral Dissolving Film
● Easy to store and transport:
The Vaccine Oral Dissolving Film does not require refrigeration and can be stored and transported at room temperature. This means that vaccines do not need to rely on expensive cold chain facilities and complex transportation systems, greatly reducing the cost of vaccination campaigns, especially in poor and remote areas.
● Increased vaccination coverage:
The refrigeration requirements of traditional vaccines limit their popularity. The convenience of Vaccine Oral Dissolving Film makes them a more popular vaccination option, especially for children and some populations with targeted vaccination needs, such as in disaster relief, pandemic outbreaks, and other specific settings.
● Long shelf life:
Croyle's team has shown that Vaccine Oral Dissolving Film have an impressive shelf life of up to three years when stored at room temperature. This not only provides greater flexibility in vaccine production and distribution, but also offers a viable solution for vaccine stockpiling on a global scale.
● Environmentally friendly:
Traditional syringes and packaging generate a large amount of waste and place a burden on the environment. In contrast, Vaccine Oral Dissolving Film produce essentially no waste, thereby reducing the ecological footprint and favoring the goal of sustainable development.
Breakthroughs in Vaccine Oral Dissolving Film technology have brought new hope to the vaccine field, offering a viable solution to vaccination rates worldwide. The advantages of this technology include no need for refrigeration, easy storage and transportation, long shelf life, and environmental friendliness. We look forward to the further development and dissemination of this technology to make greater contributions to human health.
