Multimodal Chromatography for Streamlined mRNA Vaccine Purification

Effective removal of product- and process-related impurities, such as double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), is critical in mRNA vaccine manufacturing, as dsRNA can trigger strong immune responses and inhibit translation. This webinar highlights how multimodal (mixed-mode) chromatography separates mRNA from dsRNA and other impurities. Optimized binding conditions enable over 80% mRNA recovery and 88% purity in a streamlined single-step process that can reduce processing time and lower overall costs. Watch now.
