Gennembrud i den globale kamp mod polio: AJ Vaccines opnår WHO-prækvalifikation for ny poliovaccine

På trods af en igangværende indsats for at udrydde polio, har der været en stigning af registrerede poliotilfælde fra 2018 til 2019. Fremadrettet vil AJ Vaccines ’ antigen reducerende teknologi give mulighed for at udvide udbuddet af poliovaccine, med potentiale for at levere op til 100 millioner doser i femårsperioden 2020-2024, hvilket vil dække den uopfyldte globale efterspørgsel på inaktiverede poliovacciner.

En milepælspræstation

Udviklingen af ​​den første dosis reducerede enkelt-komponent inaktiverede poliovaccine er en milepæl for den betydelige investering og innovation, der er foretaget i den danske vaccineproduktion. ”WHO's prækvalifikation er en anerkendelse af vores fortsatte investeringer, som gør det muligt for AJ Vaccines at imødekomme den stigende efterspørgsel på effektive poliovacciner, og vi åbner hermed et nyt kapitel i virksomhedens fortsatte rejse mod at bistå den danske befolkning og et stigende antal mennesker globalt” , siger Mr. Abdulaziz Hamad Aljomaih, hovedinvestor i AJ Vaccines.

En hyldest til dedikerede medarbejdere

Opnåelsen af WHO-prækvalifikationen er en hyldest til medarbejderne for deres engagement og deres bidrag, som har involveret en omfattende gennemgang af produktionsprocesser og kvalitetskontrolprocedurer, uafhængig laboratorietestning, vurdering af filer samt en inspektion af produktionsfaciliteter, der er udført i fællesskab mellem WHO og Lægemiddelstyrelsen i 2019. ”Prækvalifikationen er en anerkendelse af vores engagerede medarbejderes kompetencer og ligger i forlængelse af vores virksomheds vision, der stræber efter en verden fri for alvorlige sygdomme på tværs af generationer” , siger dr. Tabassum Khan, formand for AJ Vaccines.

Betydelige investeringer

Picovax®-udviklingsprojektet er støttet af Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. ”Siden vores overtagelse af AJ Vaccines i 2017 har vi investeret markant i den strategiske udvidelse af vores produktionsfaciliteter og rekrutteret 200 nye medarbejdere for at sikre AJ Vaccines’ position som en betydelig aktør på vaccinemarkedet, der bidrager til det vigtige strategiske globale mål om at udrydde polio” , siger Jesper Helmuth Larsen, administrerende direktør i AJ Vaccines.

Den nye vaccine vil spille en afgørende rolle for The Global Polio Eradication Initiative (GPEI)

Den nye inaktiverede poliovaccine (IPV) er indikeret til aktiv immunisering mod poliomyelitis ved primær vaccination hos spædbørn fra seks uger og til revaccination af spædbørn, børn og unge. En antigen reduceret IPV giver beskyttelse, der kan sammenlignes med den, der opnås ved andre inaktiverede poliovacciner, der i øjeblikket er tilgængelige. ”Den antigen reducerende teknologi sikrer en tiltrængt forøgelse i udbuddet og vil bidrage til at imødekomme det stigende behov for inaktiveret poliovacciner, der støtter The Global Polio Eradication Initiative” , afslutter Jérôme Cabannes, COO AJ Vaccines.

JEOL: Sales Launch of the Laser SEM System “LazEdge”25.5.2026 10:16:00 CEST | Press release

JEOL Ltd. (President & CEO: Izumi Oi) has developed the “LazEdge”, an SEM system equipped with a laser processing system, and begins sales on May 25, 2026. Cross-section preparation instruments such as the focused ion beam system (FIB system), are widely used in science and technology fields across research institutes, universities, and industries. In recent years, demand is increasing for a system that can process large-areas at a high speed, while achieving high-quality of the processed surface. “LazEdge” is an instrument integrating JEOL’s SEM with the laser technology proprietary of Hamamatsu Photonics K.K., and enables laser processing inside the specimen chamber of the electron microscope. This system enables high-quality cross-section specimens produced through high-speed, large-area processing to be transferred seamlessly to subsequent analyses, such as SEM observation, elemental analysis, and crystal orientation analysis, without exposure to the external environment. As a resu

TFG-001, A Novel 3D Neural Microtissue Cell Therapy, Demonstrates Superior Functionality and Reinnervation for Parkinson’s Disease25.5.2026 08:00:00 CEST | Press release

TreeFrog Therapeutics, a regenerative medicine biotech company developing next-generation cell therapies, today announced that it will present new preclinical data on TFG-001 at the 7th World Parkinson’s Conference. TFG-001, a 3D neural microtissue cell therapy, demonstrated rapid dopamine release and extensive graft-derived reinnervation across multiple advanced translational Parkinson’s disease models—supporting its potential as a best-in-class candidate. The critical need for reinnervation in Parkinson's disease In Parkinson's disease, an estimated 60–80% of dopaminergic neurons are already lost before motor symptoms even appear. The nigrostriatal pathway degenerates, destroying the essential wiring that connects dopamine-producing neurons to movement control. While chemical dopamine replacements (like levodopa) can manage symptoms, they cannot restore the spatial precision, feedback loops, or dynamic regulation of a healthy brain network. To achieve true functional restoration, it
