Shown is the identity of physiological and morphological properties of industrial Vibrio cholerae strains during their submerged cultivation in industrial and engineered bioreactors. Cholera bivalent chemical vaccine obtained using engineered bioreactor possesses quality indices meeting the requirements of normative documents and equal to those of preparation received by traditional approach

Prospects for Application of Ultrafiltration Technology for the Scaled Preparation of Plague Microbe and Cholera Vibrio Major Antigens

Demonstrated is the possibility of application of ultrafiltration technologies in the process of cholera toxin and plague agent capsular antigen precipitation under production conditions. Application of ultrafiltration techniques permits of the reduction of losses at the stages of isolation and purification of antigen preparations; and concentration of raw material or semi-finished product provides for the reduction of labor inputs. Thus it leads to the increase in productivity and economical efficiency

Methods and Technologies of Cholera Vibrio Cultivation (Scientific Review)

Displayed is the review of domestic and foreign literature sources devoted to matters of cholera vibrio cultivation. Discussed is the information concerning the following methods utilized in the technological process of vibrio growth stimulation: batch cultivation, fed-batch, fermentation and dialysis, periodic and continuous cultivation. Analyzed is the impact of such parameters as dissolved oxygen concentration, count of carbon nutrition source, medium pH, temperature rate , concentration and physiological condition of inoculate, duration of technological process, affecting the growth of this microorganism and synthesis of its antigens. Consequently, literature data analysis has contributed to the selection of proper method for cholera vibrio cultivation and consideration of the factors mentioned above for the development of manufacture technology applied to the production of medical immunoglobulin preparations for diagnostics and prophylaxis of cholera

Hardware-Controlled Method of Desalting Antigen Components of Cholera Chemical Vaccine

Experimentally substantiated is the possibility to apply tangential ultrafiltration for desalting antigen components of the tableted bivalent chemical cholera vaccine. Specified are the technological parameters of the process. It is demonstrated that the properties of choleragen-anatoxin (produced by Vibrio cholerae strain 569B Inaba) and O-antigens (produced from V. cholerae 569B Inaba and M-41 Ogawa strains) obtained using the designed methodology are as efficient as the ones manufactured using certified procedure and satisfy regulatory requirements. Experimentally substantiated technology for the desalting of antigen components of chemical cholera vaccine provides for the reduction of the time elapsed up to 5-6 hours from the original 3 to 4 days. It also allows for the manufacturing under controlled conditions. This hard-ware controlled method of desalting has been implemented into the vaccine production practice

Non-Waste Alternative Technologies in the Production of Heterologous Anti-Rabies Immunoglobulin

Presented is a comprehensive approach to utilization of the wastes that appear in the process of heterologous anti-rabies immunoglobulin production (packed red cells, fibrin, and alcohol-containing products). Specific immunoglobulin is extracted from the surface of red blood cells using desorption technique. Additional yields of immunoglobulin after exposure of erythrocytes to non-ionic detergent amount to 10-19 % of the output. Rich protein supplement feeding for horses-producers is obtained from spray-dried packed red cells. Solid nutritious substrate for microbiological media production is obtained from fibrin using enzymic hydrolysis method. The efficiency of the fibrin hydrolysate-based media is 1.5-2 times higher in comparison with that of the media based on the digest of meat and casein, as demonstrated by the results of Vibrio cholerae scaled cultivation. Furthermore, worked out is the technology of ethanol regeneration after the rivanol-ethanolic precipitation of gamma globulin, alcohol content by volume being (93±1) % after the regeneration. It is demonstrated that the regenerated alcohol can be used as a precipitator in the process of anti-rabies serum fractioning. All in all, the developed techniques make it possible to utilize the wastes of anti-rabies immunoglobulin production and provide for further use of derivatives while producing medical immunobiological preparations
