Article Synopsis
- Peste des Petits Ruminants (PPR) is a disease common in Africa, and effective live attenuated vaccines (Nigeria 75/1 and Sungri/96 strains) are produced to combat it, but maintaining the cold chain for these vaccines is challenging.
- The study assessed the thermotolerance of various stabilizer formulations for freeze-dried and reconstituted PPR vaccines by testing their viability at different temperatures over time.
- Results indicated that the formulation with lactalbumin hydrolysate-sucrose showed the best stability, maintaining vaccine efficacy at higher temperatures, suggesting it should be the preferred stabilizer for vaccines distributed in warmer climates.
