Plant-Based Vaccines

Fast, flexible, scalable. Innovations in plant-based vaccines hold promise for faster, safer, more cost-effective vaccine development.

Overview

Plant-based vaccines represent an innovative approach to vaccine development, using plants as bioreactors for the production of vaccine antigens to trigger immune response. AgBiotech researchers work to discover and develop new avenues for plant-based vaccines that hold promise for faster, safer, more cost-effective and more scalable vaccine production. 

Our clean, inert Oasis Grower Solutions substrates and production aids help support AgBiotech researchers with seed and plantlet establishment, healthy root growth, and water and fertility management. Our engineered substrates can be sanitized or sterilized chemically or physically (autoclave or gamma sterilization) without breaking down or altering their physical structure. In addition, treatments can be added and removed from the open-cell foam design, allowing AgBiotech scientists greater control in their vital research. 

Please note: Our engineered foam substrates are autoclavable, but our plastic trays are not. If you are interested in a configuration that’s not part of our standard offering, please let us know.
