Vaccines
We contribute to public health by supplying vaccines manufactured using state-of-the-art technologies, such as cell-culturing and recombinant technologies.
ENCEVAC
Indications :
Prevention of Japanese encephalitis
Strain :
Beijing strain
Type :
Inactivated
Shelf life :
3 years
Storage :
Keep away from light at 10°C or below
Description :
A vaccine for the prevention of Japanese encephalitis produced by culturing Japanese encephalitis virus (Beijing strain) on Vero cells and inactivated using formalin. The purification process contains both sucrose density gradient centrifugation (used for the mouse brain derived JE vaccine) and chromotography processes. ENCEVAC is a lyophilized vaccine and does not contain thimerosal or other preservatives.
Aimmugen
Indications :
Prevention of hepatitis A
Strain :
KRM003 strain
Type :
Inactivated
Shelf life :
3 years
Storage :
Keep away from light at 10°C or below
Description :
A hepatitis A vaccine produced by culturing hepatitis A virus on African green monkey kidney GL37 cells, followed by purification and inactivation. Aimmugen was developed in Japan. It is lyophilized and contains no adjuvants. Aimmugen can be administered subcutaneously or intramuscularly to people of all ages. General immunization requires 3 administrations, however, when rapid immunization is needed, 2 administrations at 0 and 2 weeks may be adequate.
Bimmugen 0.25mL, 0.5mL
Indications :
- Prevention of hepatitis B
- Prevention of maternal-infant transmission of hepatitis B virus (used in conjunction with human anti-HBs immunoglobulin)
- Prevention of hepatitis B post-exposure to HBs and Hbe antigen positive blood (used in conjunction with human anti-HBs immunoglobulin)
Type :
Recombinant (yeast-derived)
Shelf life :
2 years
Storage :
Keep away from light at 10°C or below. Do not freeze.
Description :
Bimmugen contains hepatitis B virus surface antigens (HBs antigen) prepared from yeast using recombinant technology. Bimmugen can be used not only to prevent hepatitis B infection, but also to prevent maternal transmission and for post-exposure prophylaxis.
Quattrovac
Indications :
Prevention of pertussis, diphtheria, tetanus and poliomyelitis
Strain :
- Phase I Bordetella pertussis : Tohama Strain
- Diphtheria bacteria:Park-Williams No. 8
- Tetanus bacteria:Harvard A-47
- Attenuated polio virus:
- Type : 1: LSc, 2ab
- Type : 2: P712, Ch, 2ab
- Type : 3: Leon, 12a1b
Type :
Inactivated
Shelf life :
2 years
Storage :
Keep away from light at 10°C or below. Do not freeze.
Description :
In additions to protective antigens against Bordetella pertussis, diphtheria toxoid and tetanus toxoid, Quattrovac also contains inactivated poliovirus types 1, 2 and 3 derived from Sabin strains. Quattrovac does not contain thimerosal or other preservatives, and is provided in an easy to use syringe.
Influenza HA Vaccine “KMB”
Indications :
Prevention of influenza
Strain :
Vaccine virus strains determined by the MHLW each year
Type :
Inactivated
Shelf life :
1 year
Storage :
Keep away from light at 10°C or below. Do not freeze.
Description :
An inactivated quadrivalent split (HA) seasonal influenza vaccine produced using embryonated chicken eggs. The vaccine contains 15 μg or more of HA proteins for each strain per adult dose. The strains used to make the vaccine are decided by the MHLW each year.
