sars-cov-2 vaccine inactivated vero cell

SARS-CoV-2 vaccine inactivated, Vero cell is an inactivated whole-virus COVID-19 vaccine produced using the Vero cell line derived from African green monkey kidney cells. The virus (typically CZ02 or 19nCoV-CDC-Tan-HB02 strain) is cultured on Vero cells, harvested, and then chemically inactivated (commonly with β-propiolactone). The resulting viral particles are purified and adsorbed onto aluminum hydroxide as an adjuvant. This formulation stimulates the immune system to produce neutralizing antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 without causing disease. It is indicated for active immunization to prevent COVID-19 and has been widely used globally under various brand names such as CoronaVac (Sinovac) and Covilo (Sinopharm). The primary indication is prevention of COVID-19 infection[1][2][3].
