                    Snippet: In the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, virus collections such as EVA-GLOBAL play a key role in the supply of viruses and related products for research. Freeze-drying techniques for viruses represent a method of choice for the preservation of strains and their distribution without the need for a demanding cold chain. Here, we describe an optimised lyophilisation protocol usable for SARS-CoV-2 strains that improves preservation and thermostability. We show that sucrose used as an adjuvant repres

Freeze-drying techniques for viruses represent a method of choice for the preservation of strains and their distribution without the need for a demanding cold chain. Here, we describe an optimised lyophilisation protocol usable for SARS-CoV-2 strains that improves preservation and thermostability. We show that sucrose used as an adjuvant represents a simple and efficient stabilizer providing increased protection for long-term preservation and shipment of the virus under different climatic conditions.
