NanoPass's intradermal injection platform proven to sustain COVID-19 vaccine antibodies using 1/15 of the dose reports Chinese Institute of Medical Biology
A study conducted by IMB scientists and published by NanoPass has shown that intradermal COVID vaccination can effectively increase antibody levels. The study used NanoPasss MicronJet™600 device to administer a 1/15 dose of the vaccine intradermally, resulting in significant increases in antibody levels. The intradermal boost allowed for robust and sustained immunogenicity for at least six months. NanoPass CEO, Dr. Yotam Levin, commended the Chinese researchers for their work and highlighted the potential to multiply available vaccine doses by 15-fold. The study was a joint effort between NanoPass and YNC, with YNC supporting IMB. YNC CEO, Ni Jian, emphasized the importance of improving antibody levels and sustaining them for a longer time to combat COVID-19.
