Vaccine Response for Virus Outbreaks | Sartorius

Pandemic Preparedness: Accelerating Vaccine Development in a Pandemic

Products and Solutions for Vaccine Development in Virus Outbreaks

For the last decade, Sartorius has collaborated with biopharmaceutical companies to help manufacture vaccines for infectious disease outbreaks and pandemics like Ebola, Zika, and H1N1. The COVID-19 pandemic has allowed us to build on this foundation — and learn even more about pandemic preparedness.  

We learned the importance of dedicated partnerships among various industry stakeholders. We also learned that disruptive technologies, such as mRNA vaccines, are essential to respond with agility — and to deliver life-saving vaccines today and beyond.

Sartorius stands ready to help our customers reimagine their businesses — so they can, in turn, deliver the next generation of life-saving vaccines.

Vaccine Development Platforms

Preparing for the next pandemic will take multiple vaccine platforms, including traditional and emerging technologies. Our interactive process flow diagrams allow you to explore the challenges, and Sartorius’ solutions, for:

  • Virus-based vaccines, including inactivated viral vaccines and live-attenuated viral vaccines 
  • Viral vector vaccines, based on enveloped and non-enveloped vectors, as well as other commonly used vectors
  • Nucleic acid vaccines, either plasmid DNA or a messenger RNA molecule coding for a disease-specific antigen (such as the mRNA vaccine for COVID-19 coding for the spike protein on the SARS-CoV-2 virus)
  • Recombinant protein vaccines, which consist of viral or bacterial antigen produced using recombinant technology
