Abstract
Licensed as well as candidate cholera vaccines available at the present requires the dose preparation (included buffer) at the moment of application. The aim of this work was to evaluate the presentation in oral tablets of an inactivated cholera vaccine to avoid that inconveniences during application. We have therefore compared inactivated cultures of Vibrio cholerae with tablets formulation vaccine. We obtained that antigenic activity (ELISA) and immunogenicity in animal model (ELISA and vibriocidal tests) of V. cholerae inactivated cell remained unaltered in the final tablet formulation. The results suggest that the oral tablet formulation could be a useful pharmaceutical form in order to produce a new and affordable cholera vaccine.
