Abstract
The advancement of recombinant virus-like particle-based vaccines has attracted global attention owing to substantially safety and high efficacy in provoking a protective immunity against various chronic and infectious diseases in humans and animals. A robust, low-cost, and scalability separation and purification technology is of utmost importance in the downstream processing of recombinant virus-like particles to produce affordable and safe vaccines. Being a relatively simple, environmentally friendly, and efficient biomolecules recovery approach, aqueous two-phase systems have received great attention from researchers worldwide. This review aims to highlight the challenges and outlook in addition to the current applications of aqueous two-phase systems in downstream processing of virus-like particles. The efforts will confidently reinforce scholars’ knowledge and fill in the valuable research gap in the aspect of concerning recombinant virus-like particle-based vaccines development, particularly related to the virus-like particles downstream production processes.
