Animal vaccines are of great significance in preventing various diseases, blocking the spread of infectious diseases, and ensuring the healthy development of animal husbandry. There are many types of animal vaccines. We will find that some vaccines are packaged in plastic vaccine bottles, while some vaccines are What are the differences between the two types of packaging for selected glass vaccine bottles?

Animal vaccines are divided into inactivated vaccines and live vaccines based on different antigenic properties and preparation processes. Inactivated vaccines, also known as killed vaccines, are vaccines made by using physical or chemical methods to treat microorganisms so that they lose their infectivity or toxicity while maintaining good immunogenicity. It has the characteristics of being safe and not returning to its ancestors and strength. This kind of vaccine does not have high requirements for the storage environment. The suitable storage temperature is 2-8℃. During the storage process, the vaccine must be strictly prevented from freezing. It cannot be stored under conditions below 0℃, otherwise it will cause the inactivated vaccine to deteriorate and affect immunity. Effect. Different from the single-dose packaging of live vaccines, the packaging capacity of this type of vaccine is generally relatively large, and glass materials are easily broken during transportation, so plastic vaccine bottles are often used to store inactivated vaccines.

Live vaccines generally need to be stored at low temperatures, especially freeze-dried vaccines that need to be kept below -15°C. The lower the temperature, the longer the storage time. This type of vaccine generally needs to be sterilized by high temperature and high pressure. Relatively speaking, the high temperature and low temperature resistance of glass is more suitable for the storage of this type of vaccine.

In addition, plastic vaccine bottles are generally made of polyethylene or polypropylene and have good barrier properties and resistance to corrosion by acid and alkali solvents. The vaccine diluent is usually physiological saline, and you can also choose this kind of packaging.
