Formulation and process residual testing
For all vaccines, formulation and process residual components must be tested. The components vary from product to product, and there are multiple techniques used to monitor these residuals.
Adjuvants
Modern vaccines are highly purified which can lead to instability in their immunogenicity. To help retain antigen immunogenicity, adjuvants can be incorporated into the vaccine formulation. Adjuvants interact with the immune system through various mechanisms thereby enhancing the immune response. Currently, the most utilized adjuvants in licensed products are aluminum salts, typically aluminum phosphate and squalene-based oil-in-water emulsions.

Excipients
Formulation of vaccines is multi-step to ensure stability. This is controlled by pH, ionic strength and buffers, and excipients can be added to provide further stability. Typically, GRAS (generally regarded as safe) excipients are used, but levels in products must be monitored.
HPLC-Charged Aerosol Detection for Excipients
A summary of applications and helpful information to show how liquid chromatography combined with a charged aerosol detector can be used to meet the needs of scientists working with excipients and active pharmaceutical ingredients or when impurity profiling is needed.
Charged Aerosol Detection for Liquid Chromatography
Learn how charged aerosol detectors (CAD) deliver sensitive, universal detection with a near-uniform response. CAD measure a wide range of analytes with flexibility and performance. See why CAD simplicity and reproducibility benefit manufacturing QC/QA applications.
Process residuals
Processes used in the production of the vaccine may lead to process residuals that must be monitored. These include bioreactor processes where metal leaching may occur, formaldehyde in the inactivation of whole vaccines, and cyanide in vaccine production steps, for example. Multiple analytical approaches can be used to monitor these, including:
