Synbiosis has announced that Bio Farma in Indonesia is using a Protocol system to speed up the quality testing of its seasonal flu vaccines.
The Protocol system is being used in the quality control department at Bio Farma to rapidly measure inhibition zones on 16-zone SRD (single radial immunodiffusion) plates of flu vaccines.
Scientists at Bio Farma can now analyse 10 SRD plates in the time it would take to manually perform one analysis, while also producing a more accurate and reproducible indication of vaccine potency.
This is ensuring Bio Farma can deliver its vaccines to healthcare professionals as, and when, they are needed.
