Spray Drying of Vaccines: From Laboratory Research to Industrial Applications (EPUB)

Understanding Vaccine Spray Drying Technology

This book written by Cordin Arpagaus aims to provide readers with an overview of the current state of the art on a laboratory and industrial scale regarding the stabilization of vaccine powders by spray drying. The book brings readers up to speed on the recent advances in vaccine spray drying technology and its application potential. The book covers critical aspects such as the design of aseptic spray dryers, parameters affecting the spray drying process, sterile powder processing, cleaning procedures, and powder filling.

The book also highlights the unique capabilities of spray drying as a particle technology for vaccines, comparing it with different drying technologies for the production of dry powder vaccines. The author pays special attention to research studies on spray-dried vaccines published over the past 30 years, presenting key findings from laboratory research to clinical trials. The book also discusses potential applications of spray-dried vaccines and routes of administration in detail. Finally, an outlook is given on how close the aseptic spray-drying of vaccines is to the market and the challenges that need to be overcome to be commercially successful.

The target audience for this book includes students, academics, researchers, vaccine developers, industry experts, and funders, including government agencies, who are active in the field. The book is also a comprehensive reference source for those involved in the vaccine formulation and biopharmaceutical processing industry.
