Study on the stability of a measles vaccine.
With live measles freeze-dried vaccine, accelerated storage test provides more information than does a titration of residual moisture. From our results, it appears that there is a good correlation between storage at 37 degrees and the tests usually required by the manufacturer, i. e. storage for 1 year at refrigerator temperature. The accelerated test in neither tedious nor expensive and is recommended for routine use.
