How 2bind identifies the best buffer for a vaccine antigen target with Prometheus Panta

Discover how 2bind applied multi-parameter characterization from a single experiment to find the optimal buffer for a vaccine antigen target.

You’ll learn about:

  • Why stabilizing vaccine antigen targets is critical for downstream development of vaccines
  • How a combinatorial approach to stability screening helped 2bind identify a more optimal buffer compared to thermal stability screens alone
  • How they validated that their new buffer selection did not interrupt binding between targeting antibodies and the antigen target

Why it’s important for formulation:

Vaccine antigen target proteins must remain optimally folded and functional in order to act as a target for vaccine development. Improvements to the chemical environment via buffer optimization are a straightforward way to approach the stabilization of these antigens. With a combinatorial approach for screening both thermal and colloidal stability of an antigen, it is possible to find ideal buffer conditions for your proteins of interest.
