Abstract: The present invention relates to novel semi-synthetic meningococcal conjugate vaccine comprising novel synthetic oligosaccharide conjugated to a carrier protein. The present invention also relates to novel synthetic meningococcal oligosaccharide and a process for its preparation.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a multivalent Pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) composition comprising: 1) at least 12 capsular polysaccharides selected from serotypes 1, 3, 4, 5, 6B, 7F, 9N, 9V, 15B, 14, 18C, 19A, 19F, 22F, 23F and 33F of S. pneumoniae activated with CDAP and conjugated to carrier protein selected from CRM197, pneumococcal surface protein A (PspA), pneumococcal adhesin protein (PsaA) or combination thereof and 2) a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, wherein the composition does not contain capsular polysaccharide from serotype 6A.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an improved process for production of Aluminium phosphate (AlPhos) gel wherein the solutions of aluminium salt and alkaline phosphate salt are added to water by maintaining the pH under stirring to obtain the precipitate, followed by sterilization of the said precipitate and finally obtaining the Aluminum phosphate gel.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to multivalent pneumococcal vaccine compositions comprising capsular pneumococcal polysaccharide serotypes each individually conjugated to carrier proteins. When conjugated, the combination of the capsular pneumococcal polysaccharide serotype and the carrier protein is referred to herein as a polysaccharide-protein conjugate. The pneumococcal vaccine compositions may further comprise one or more of the following; a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, a pharmaceutically acceptable diluent, a buffer, a preservative, a stabilizer, an adjuvant, and/or a lyophilization excipient. Methods of making and administering the pneumococcal vaccine compositions described herein are also provided.

Abstract: The present invention relates to high level expression of bacterial toxoid or toxin protein of pharmacological interest by means of an optimized novel polynucleotide sequence and host transformed with the said polynucleotide. Specifically, the invention provides a method for high production of polypeptide CRM197 wherein, the polynucleotide of the invention is used to transform a suitable host resulting in over-expression of corresponding proteins and a method for isolating the expressed polypeptide. More particularly, the present invention relates to high level expression of CRM197 in Escherichia coli and a method for the isolation and purification thereof.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a preparation method which is performed by expressing the recombinant carrier proteins in Escherichia coli and purification thereof. More particular, the invention relates to industrially scalable process for the recovery of recombinant carrier proteins.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the removal of protein and other impurities from microbial capsular polysaccharides. More particularly, the present invention relates to isolation of microbial capsular polysaccharides in pure form after removal of protein and other impurities.
