We are pleased to announce a breakthrough mRNA stabilization discovery. Findings announced by Verndari at World Vaccine and Immunotherapy Congress West Coast may help overcome technical, economic and political hurdles to global COVID-19 vaccine distribution.
Using Verndari’s proprietary formulation, we have been able to dry, store at room temperature and reconstitute 100% of the activity of mRNA vaccines in vitro. These patent-pending formulations have the potential for use with all mRNA vaccines, therapeutics & delivery methods.
“We believe this discovery may prove instrumental in helping healthcare leaders overcome the technical, economic and political hurdles that have impeded universal access to COVID-19 vaccines and other life-saving mRNA vaccines and therapeutics,” said Daniel Henderson, CEO and chief scientific officer at Verndari.
