A technology for the manufacturing of the Vector-Flu cell-based live attenuated pandemic vaccine using the A/H1N1 cold-adapted influenza strain has been developed. A certified line of MDCK cells was used as a substrate in accordance with the WHO guidelines. The final vaccine preparation was in the form of an amorphous mass and was easily water-soluble, pH value being 6.90 — 6.94; the potencies of monovalent bulks ranged from 6.33 to 6.80 log₁₀ EID₅₀/0.2 ml. Monovalent bulk release assays (sterility control, control for mycoplasma and extraneous agents, identity test with homologous type specific antiserum and lack of cross-reactivity with heterological antiosera) were successfully passed. The residual cellular DNA in the final vaccine formulation was less than 10 ng/dose. The vaccine preparation was substantially stable, namely, the specific potency losses were not found out at temperatures ranging from 4 to 8°C within a period of 1.5 year. The vaccine batches were controlled by the National Control Institute and subjected to preclinical trials that demonstrated the attenuation and immunogenicity of the preparation.

Key words:  A/H1N1 influenza pandemic virus,  MDCK cells,  Vector-Flu vaccine.
