Here we report the results of a study to establish a replacement WHO International Standard (IS) for tetanus toxoid for use in flocculation test. The standard was calibrated in flocculation units (Lf) against the 2nd IS using the Ramon flocculation method. At its 70th meeting in October 2019, WHO ECBS established the material (coded 16/302) as the 3rd WHO IS, with an assigned value of 970 Lf/ampoule from the results of seventeen laboratories across ten different countries.The study also provided an opportunity to assess the use of alternative methods for measuring Lf. Participants were asked to use an in-house Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) developed at NIBSC, or other suitable in-house methods, to determine ELISA-specific Lf values (Lf-eq units are specific only for pre-calibration of antitoxin in the flocculation test) of 16/302 to compare to those of the flocculation test. Nine laboratories participated by performing the NIBSC ELISA, one laboratory performed flocculation by laser light-scattering following an in-house protocol, and three laboratories performed ELISA following in-house protocols. The results intimate that these alternative methods could be useful for monitoring consistency of production at different stages of vaccine manufacturing.
