Vaccine development support

Image of vaccine development support

VLA can offer assistance at all stages of your vaccine development process.

Our services, which are Good Laboratory Practice (GLP), Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) and Good Clinical Practice (vet) (GCVP) compliant, range from producing data during preliminary research right through to batch checking after the product goes on sale.

We have a wealth of experience of in vitro techniques and are able to work on a wide range of organisms including those requiring high security disease containment facilities.

Services also include:

  • primary research
  • antigen development
  • testing for attenuation
  • antibody and antigen detection
  • extraneous agents testing (mammalian and avian)
  • efficacy
  • safety

In addition we are able to test starting materials for extraneous agents, including substances of animal origin, cell lines and masters seeds.

Batch release tests

We provide a comprehensive service for testing batches of vaccines prior to release including potency, safety and extraneous agents tests.
