  • Vaccine Excipient Table
    Vaccine Excipient Summary Excipients Included in U.S. Vaccines, by Vaccine In addition to weakened or killed disease antigens (viruses or bacteria), vaccines contain very small amounts of other ingredients – excipients. Some excipients are added to a vaccine for a specific purpose. These include: Preservatives, to prevent contamination. For example, thimerosal. Adjuvants, to help stimulate a stronger immune response. For example, aluminum salts. Stabilizers, to keep the vaccine potent during transportation and storage. For example, sugars or gelatin. Others are residual trace amounts of materials that were used during the manufacturing process and removed. These can include: Cell culture materials, used to grow the vaccine antigens. For example, egg protein, various culture media. Inactivating ingredients, used to kill viruses or inactivate toxins. For example, formaldehyde. Antibiotics, used to prevent contamination by bacteria. For example, neomycin. The following table lists substances, other than active ingredients (i.e., antigens), shown in the manufacturers’ package insert (PI) as being contained in the final formulation of each vaccine. Note: Substances used in the manufacture of a vaccine but not listed as contained in the final product (e.g., culture media) can be found in each PI, but are not shown on this table. Each PI, which can be found on the FDA’s website (see below) contains a description of that vaccine’s manufacturing process, including the amount and purpose of each substance. In most PIs, this information is found

  • General Properties of the Alkaline Phosphates: - Major Food and Technical Applications
    Phosphorus Research Bulletin Vol. 15 (2004) p. 85-94 General Properties of the Alkaline Phosphates: - Major Food and Technical Applications P.HOURANT Deputy Business Line Manager, Prayon S.A., Business Unit Phosphates, Rue Joseph Wauters, 144 4480 Engis, Belgium; E-mail: [email protected] INTRODUCTION The alkaline phosphates are used for many food and technical applications. Phosphates have two characteristics that explain their four main properties: buffer agent, sequestering power, dispersing power and water holding capability. Those properties allow phosphates to be used in many food and technical applications. The main food applications are meat and seafood processing, baking and processed cheese, but others such as cereals, French fries, fruits and vegetables, beverages, noodles and so on also may need the use of phosphates. On the technical side, the main applications are the detergent products, the water treatment and the metal treatment. As for the food, many other applications require phosphates such as ceramics, bone china, paper and paints,... In meat products, phosphates salts interact in a unique way to bind water with proteins and improve the tenderness in meats. Treated products will maintain their juicy appearance as well as their natural nutritional properties texture and colour. In fish and seafood products, phosphates salts allow the retention of the natural juices of frozen fish fillets, prawns, shrimps, scallops and other seafood. Phosphates also help prevent the build-up of struvite crystals in tinned tuna and crabmeat. In processed cheese, phosphates are crucially important in the production of processed cheese. These products ensure a homogeneous and uniform melt of raw cheese and product stability.

As a new approach, the acidity that wood exhibits under moderate conditions is assayed by stimulated dissociation of weak wood acids in lightly basic secondary phosphate solutions. To assure a sufficient dissociation of hardly soluble weak acids in the solution, the amount of wood suspended in Na2HPO4 solutions should be small but vary depending on the degree of acidity of wood species. However, the difficulties are associated with the titration of very dilute acids limiting the precision of the measurement. If the disintegrated wood is suspended in a secondary phosphate solution, the weak woods acids form the conjugate acid Na2HPO4 from secondary phosphate Na2HPO4 resulting in a pH fall of the solution. The decrease in the pH value in phosphate solution, which depends on the wood acidity, can be evaluated to estimate the acidity arising from wood under moderate conditions.

Guinee & Brendan T. O’Kennedy Received: 21 July 2011 /Revised: 6 December 2011 /Accepted: 8 December 2011 / Published online: 15 February 2012 # INRA and Springer-Verlag, France 2011 Abstract The intake of sodium in modern western diet is excessive, with potentially harmful effects on health. Consequently, there is a drive to reduce the sodium content of foods. A major source of sodium in processed cheeses (PCs) is the added emulsifying salts (sodium phosphates or citrates) which play a key role in product formation and stabilisation.
