Reduction of free polysaccharide contamination in the production of a 15-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine.
Glycoconjugate vaccines are vaccines in which a bacterial polysaccharide antigen is conjugated to a carrier protein to enhance immunogenicity by promoting T cell-dependent immune response. However, the free (unreacted) polysaccharides remaining after the conjugation process can inhibit the immunogen...
