Utility description: Rabies Vaccine Potency Assay

Rabies Vaccine Potency Assay Reviewer — Rabies Vaccine Potency Test Review

ℹ️  Utility performs automatic verification of acceptance criteria for rabies vaccine potency tests according to Ph. Eur. 2.7.13 and WHO guidelines:
     • Assay Validity: Check of challenge control mortality and negative control survival.
     • Statistical Correctness: Assessment of slope factor and dose-response linearity.
     • Potency Calculation: Determination of activity in International Units (IU) relative to international standard.
     • Compliance Check: Comparison with minimum requirements (≥ 2.5 IU/dose for humans, ≥ 1.0 IU/dose for animals).

⚠️  IMPORTANT: 
     • Rabies potency test is one of the strictest biological tests.
     • Any deviation in control groups renders the result inapplicable, as it questions virus virulence.

Usage:
  RabiesVaccinePotencyAssayReviewer.exe                            → demo mode (console output)
  RabiesVaccinePotencyAssayReviewer.exe input.csv output.json      → evaluate your data

Input format:
BatchNumber,VaccineType,StdReference_IU,Slope_Factor,ControlGroup_SurvivalRate,ChallengeControl_MortalityRate,Calculated_Potency_IU,MinPotency_Requirement

Example:
  RAB-001,Human,1.0,1.2,1.0,0.95,4.8,2.5

📍 Scope of Application (Usage Where):
     • Human Vaccine Production: Release of rabies vaccine batches.
     • Veterinary Pharmacy: Quality control of vaccines for pets and livestock.
     • State Control: Inspection testing in reference laboratories.
     • New Vaccine Development: Comparative analysis of candidate immunogenicity.

— WHY IS THIS NEEDED?
Rabies is a disease with 100% lethality. Vaccine efficacy is critically important.
Automated review eliminates errors in interpreting complex statistical data (Probit/Spearman-Kärber analysis) and guarantees that only highly immunogenic batches reach the market.
This complies with GLP principles and global health security requirements.

⚠️  CRITICAL:
• Challenge Control: Mortality in this group must be high (usually >80%), otherwise virus was weak or dose insufficient.
• Negative Control: Survival must be close to 100% to exclude accidental animal death.
• Slope Factor: Too shallow slope indicates poor method reproducibility.
• IU Limit: For human vaccines, 2.5 IU limit is a rigid WHO requirement.

Key features:
• Automatic system suitability check
• Test validity status calculation (Valid/Invalid)
• Comparison of obtained potency with regulatory requirements (Human/Vet)
• Support for various statistical calculation models
• Report generation for LIMS integration

Critical parameters:
• Challenge Mortality: ≥ 80%
• Negative Control Survival: ≥ 90-100%
• Calculated Potency: ≥ 2.5 IU (Human) / ≥ 1.0 IU (Vet)
• Test Validity: True

💡 Usage tips:
1. Statistics: Use specialized software for primary IU calculation, and this utility for review.
2. Historical Data: Compare current control indicators with laboratory historical data.
3. Biosafety: All work is performed under BSL-3 conditions.
4. Alternative Methods: In vitro methods (pseudoviruses) may be used for screening, but final release often requires in vivo.
5. Documentation: Save reports as part of the test protocol.

⚠️ Note: This utility checks data correctness and specification compliance. It does not replace expert assessment by pathologist during animal trials.

QA/QC and change control

  • Do not rename columns without updating validator, documentation and test set.
  • Retain input.csv, output.json, executable version and checksum.
  • Before production use, perform IQ/OQ/PQ or equivalent CSV/CSA verification.
  • Critical limits shall be verified against the approved specification, registration dossier and local SOPs.
  • The utility provides structured QC decision support; final release decision remains with QA/QP and approved procedures.
