OUR APPROACH TO TECHNOLOGY
We study and develop solutions for emerging strains of viruses to help protect our future. Our work includes:
Nanoparticle technology
These are particles so small they can’t be seen by the human eye. To the immune system, these nanoparticles look like a virus—but the vaccine doesn't have the actual virus in it. We use these nanoparticles to help trigger the body’s immune response.
Protein subunit technology
This is a well-known and established technology used to fight against diseases and pathogens such as seasonal flu, HPV, hepatitis B, and Haemophilus influenzae type B.
Exclusive adjuvant
We work with an adjuvant technology that is combined with our nanoparticle technology. It includes a naturally derived ingredient that comes from the bark of a Chilean tree. Adjuvants are used to help create a stronger immune response in your body.
