Also provided are methods of producing the mixed carrier, multivalent pneumococcal conjugate compositions and methods of using the same for prophylaxis against Streptococcus pneumoniae infection or disease in a subject.

Abstract: A method for purifying a target protein in high yield is disclosed. The target protein includes a membrane protein. The purification method optimizes crushing and elution conditions during processes of separation and purification of membrane proteins, and when using the method to purify membrane proteins, the membrane proteins can be purified in a higher yield that is not less than 100 times compared to conventional homogenizer or sonic pulverization process. In addition, the purification method render removals of nuclei, peroxisomes, and lysosomes, thereby reducing DNA contamination and protein damage by proteases.

Abstract: The present invention provides a recombinant antigen protein for preventing SARS-coronavirus-2 infection, comprising a polypeptide derived from an S1 subunit of a spike protein of SARS-coronavirus-2 and a polypeptide constituting a tetanus toxin (TT) epitope P2 domain, and a vaccine composition comprising the same.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of preparing an influenza working virus seed stock, a method of increasing infectivity of an influenza working virus seed stock, a method of preparing an influenza vaccine using the seed stock, an influenza vaccine prepared by the method, and an influenza working virus seed stock having increased infectivity.
