Abstract: The present invention is related to novel liquid and lyophilized formulations of Chikungunya virus useful as vaccines and methods for their preparation.

Abstract: Described herein are Zika virus vaccines and compositions and methods of producing and administering said vaccines to subjects in need thereof.

Abstract: Described herein are processes for purifying infectious virus particles and uses of protamine in such processes.

Abstract: The present invention relates to modified metapneumovirus (hMPV) F proteins, stabilized in the pre-fusion conformation. It also relates to immunogenic compositions (vaccines) comprising these proteins for preventing and/or treating human subjects against respiratory tract infections.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a polypeptide comprising a mutant fragment of an outer surface protein A (OspA), a nucleic acid coding the same, a pharmaceutical composition (particularly for use as a medicament of in a method of treating or preventing a Borrelia infection) comprising the polypeptide and/or the nucleic acid, a method of treating or preventing a Borrelia infection and a method of immunizing a subject.

Abstract: Described herein are improved purification methods for Zika virus vaccines and compositions. Also described are Zika vaccines and methods of producing and administering said Zika vaccines to subjects in need thereof.

Abstract: The invention relates to means and methods for preparing aqueous composition comprising aluminium and a protein said composition comprising less than 700 ppm heavy metal on the basis of weight with respect to the aluminium content. The invention further relates to aqueous compositions comprising a protein and an aluminium-salt, said composition comprising less than 350 ppb heavy metal based on the weight of the aqueous composition.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for producing an immunogenic live attenuated Chikungunya virus, as well as pharmaceutical compositions comprising the same.

Abstract: Described herein are Zika virus vaccines and compositions and methods of producing and administering said vaccines to subjects in need thereof.

Abstract: Described herein are improved purification methods for virus vaccines and compositions. Also described are Zika, Chikungunya, dengue and yellow fever vaccines and methods of producing and administering said vaccines to subjects in need thereof.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a polypeptide comprising a mutant fragment of an outer surface protein A (OspA), a nucleic acid coding the same, a pharmaceutical composition (particularly for use as a medicament of in a method of treating or preventing a Borrelia infection) comprising the polypeptide and/or the nucleic acid, a method of treating or preventing a Borrelia infection and a method of immunizing a subject.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods of rescue and/or propagation of paramyxovirus species, particularly wherein both rescue and propagation are carried out in the same cell type; i.e., without the use of helper cells for viral rescue. The paramyxoviruses produced by the disclosed methods may encompass wild-type viruses, chimeric viruses, recombinant viruses or engineered viral products such as virus like particles (VLP). Viruses and/or viral products produced in the method according to the current invention are suitable for medical or veterinary use in such applications as treating or preventing infectious diseases, particularly avian paramyxovirus and human respiratory virus infections, and cancer treatment.

Abstract: The invention relates to means and methods for preparing aqueous composition comprising aluminium and a protein said composition comprising less than 700 ppm heavy metal on the basis of weight with respect to the aluminium content. The invention further relates to aqueous compositions comprising a protein and an aluminium-salt, said composition comprising less than 350 ppb heavy metal based on the weight of the aqueous composition.
