Bundibugyo Ebolavirus Virus-Like Particle - VP40 VLP

Availability: Expected to ship in August 2026.

Description: This virus-like particle is comprised of the Bundibugyo ebolavirus VP40 Matrix protein. This VLP is non-infectious and non-replicating as it lacks viral genetic material.

Strain History: Bundibugyo ebolavirus emerged as a distinct species of ebolavirus during a 2007 outbreak in western Uganda. The genomic sequence in available in NCBI.

Passage History: Vero E6 (2). References (1) and (2).

Production: Transfection of VP40 expressing plasmid into human embryonic kidney 293T (HEK 293T) cells. Collected supernatant purified and concentrated by sucrose gradient centrifugation.

Biosafety Level: 2

Formulation: 1.0 mg of protein suspended in PBS.

Format: 1.0 mL/vial. Purified and concentrated cell culture supernatant frozen at -80°C. Delivered on dry ice.

QA/QC:

• Protein concentration
• Mycoplasma test by PCR
• Sterility test for bacterial and fungal contamination
• Endotoxin test <0.25 EU/mL
• Electron microscopy imaging to confirm VLP structure
• Documentation: Experimental conditions for QC tests
