Enveloped virus infectivity recovery after lyophilization.

<p>Chikungunya virus and Herpesvirus type 1 were freeze dried with/without different stabilizers using two different protocols (LP1 and LP2). After seven days at different temperature storage (-20°C, +4°C, +20°C), infectivity of each virus formulation were determinate by TCID₅₀ assays. Chikungunya virus infectivity after storage at -20°C, +4°C, +20°C. Herpesvirus type 1 infectivity after storage at -20°C, +4°C, +20°C.* TCID50/ml >10⁸.</p

Non enveloped virus infectivity recovery after lyophilization.

<p>Human Echovirus 13 and Human Adenovirus type C were freeze dried with/without different stabilizers using two different protocols (LP1 and LP2). After seven days at different temperature storage (-20°C, +4°C, +20°C), infectivity of each virus formulation were determinate by TCID₅₀ assays. Human Echovirus 13 infectivity after storage at -20°C, +4°C, +20°C. Human Adenovirus type C infectivity after storage at -20°C, +4°C, +20°C.</p
