Abera’s highly efficient vaccine platform technology, BERA, enables display of antigens at the surface of OMVs.
The BERA vaccine platform is an innovative and highly adaptable vaccine technology developed by Abera Bioscience. Built on over 30 years of research, it leverages Outer Membrane Vesicles (OMVs) to create safe, effective, and scalable vaccines. With its plug-and-play design, the BERA platform enables rapid development of vaccines for infectious diseases, including influenza, COVID-19, and other emerging threats.

The BERA vaccine platform utilizes genetically engineered OMVs—nanosized spherical vesicles that naturally bud from bacterial membranes. These OMVs act as powerful immune stimulators, triggering both systemic and mucosal immunity. Unlike traditional vaccine vectors, OMVs are non-replicating and highly safe while maintaining strong adjuvant properties.
One of the greatest advantages of the BERA vaccine technology is its modular design. By decorating OMVs with different disease-specific antigens, Abera Bioscience can quickly design and produce new vaccines. This enables:
Unlike many traditional vaccines, the BERA vaccine platform enable nasal delivery, triggering a strong immune response at mucosal surfaces—the primary entry point for many bacteria and viruses. By preventing bacterial colonization and viral replication in the nose and lungs, BERA-based vaccines have the potential to halt transmission and stop outbreaks before they spread.
The BERA platform enables large-scale vaccine manufacturing at a lower cost compared to traditional vaccine production. Thanks to its efficient OMV-based system, vaccine candidates can be developed, tested, and produced within an few weeks, ensuring a rapid response to pandemic threats.
At Abera Bioscience, we are committed to revolutionizing vaccine technology with the BERA vaccine platform. If you’re interested in collaborating or learning more, contact us at info@aberabio.com.
