Q

Whole, killed vaccine

A

Whole inactivated virus vaccines take longer to make because batches of the coronavirus must first be grown then killed using a chemical or heat, then made into a vaccine that can be injected to elicit an immune response

Q

For drugs of low water solubility the absorption rate may be…

A

Governed by the dissolution rate. in such cases, if dissolution occurs too slowly, absorption efficiency may suffer
