    Sera collected from 26 recipients of COVAXIN was tested

  • Bharat Biotech performed the plaque reduction neutralization test (PRNT50) using sera collected from 26 recipients of COVAXIN and tested them against the UK variant and heterologous strain.

    "A comparable neutralization activity of sera of the vaccinated individuals showed against UK-variant and the heterologous strain with similar efficiency, dispel the uncertainty of possible neutralization escape," the pre-print review published on bioRxivs website said.
