Did Korean and Japanese scientists find self-assembling nano-structures in mRNA vaccines from Pfizer and Moderna?! Take a look at the viral claims, and find out what the facts really are!
Claim : Self-assembling nano-structures were found in mRNA vaccines!
Some people are sharing a study which claims to have discovered self-assembling nano-structures in mRNA vaccines from Pfizer and Moderna!

Truth : Self-assembling nano-structures were not found in mRNA vaccines!
The study, which is called Real-Time Self-Assembly of Stereomicroscopically Visible Artificial Constructionsin Incubated Specimens of mRNA Products Mainly from Pfizer and Moderna: A Comprehensive Longitudinal Study, can be read in full here.
As impressive as its long name and article length (64 pages!) may seem, it does not show any actual evidence of self-assembling nano-structures in mRNA vaccines, this appears to be yet another example of fake news about the COVID-19 vaccines, and here are the reasons why…
The vaccine vials were likely contaminated
The study authors collected 58 vials, of which only 4 were unopened – 2 Pfizer, 1 AstraZeneca and 1 Novavax. The other 54 vials were used, and only contained residuals – leftover vaccine. There were no unopened Moderna vaccine vials.
Ideally, the study authors should have used only the unopened vials. However, it appears that they used all those vials – the vast majority which were already opened and used, and therefore highly likely to be contaminated.
Both Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines are delivered in multi-dose vials – 6 doses per Pfizer vial, and 10 doses per Moderna vial. The vaccine doses in those vials are sterile but do not contain preservatives, and must be kept refrigerated at very low temperatures.
But when a nurse or doctor inserts a needle to withdraw a dose of the COVID-19 vaccine, it will likely introduce some contaminants, including microbes. Hence, the contents of each vaccine vial must be used within 2 hours (Pfizer) or 6 hours (Moderna) – to ensure its safety as well as effectiveness.
Therefore, it is highly likely that the used vaccine vials were contaminated before the study authors even got their hands on them.

The vaccine samples were likely degraded
mRNA vaccines from Pfizer and Moderna have to be stored at very low temperatures, or they will degrade quickly:
- -70°C to -80°C (-94°F to -112°F) for the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine, or
- -25°C to -15°C (-13°F to 5°F) for the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine.
Just before administration, they must be thawed and kept at 2°C to 8°C (36°F to 46°F) – and then, they must be used within 30-31 days.
While the study authors said they kept those vials at -20°C, it is uncertain whether they maintained the cold chain. If the vaccines were left at room temperature for more than a few hours, they would have degraded by the time they were put back into refrigeration.
But more importantly – the COVID-19 vaccines do not last long in our bodies. Right after being injected into our body, these vaccines rapidly enter nearby cells to produce the spike proteins that trigger our immune system to create the necessary antibodies against COVID-19.
Those COVID-19 vaccines, especially the delicate mRNA vaccines, would have broken down into their constituents if they were kept at room temperature for days, never mind weeks or months! It is therefore highly likely that what the study authors observed or photographed were agglutinated (clumps of) components of the degraded vaccines, rather than self-assembling nano-structures!

The vaccine samples were possibly contaminated
It is also highly possible that the vaccine samples were contaminated during their 12-21 months incubation period. After all, even filtered air in a clean laboratory would contain contaminants and microbes.
Unless the samples were sterilised after being prepared, and kept sealed and untouched during their incubation period, it is highly possible they were contaminated at some point in time.
The samples could also be contaminated at anytime the study authors handled them, if they did not take the necessary aseptic precautions.
The photos show large variety of “nano-structures”
If the COVID-19 vaccines were manufactured to deliver some kind of self-replicating nano-structure (for whatever nefarious reasons), the study authors should see the same “nano-structures” appear in all vaccine vials.
Yet, their photos show a dizzying array of different “nano-structures”, some with crystalline structures while others appear to be biological cells. This suggests that the photos show different kinds of contaminants in the vaccine samples, and not actually man-made “nano-structures” of any kind.

The study does not show actual nano-structures
It is odd to see the study authors use a stereo microscope to observe nano-structures. A stereo microscope is a type of optical microscope with two eyepieces (instead of one).
Despite having two eyepieces, stereo microscopes actually have much lower magnification than compound microscopes which have only one eyepiece. Hence, stereo microscopes are used for “low magnification” observation of a sample.
In any case, light microscopes of any kind are not the ideal way to observe nano-structures, because they do not offer enough magnification to resolve such tiny objects. Typically, they have a maximum resolution of just 400 to 700 nanometres (nm).
To observe nano-structures, extremely high-resolution electron microscopes should be used, as they can resolve structures from 0.1 to 10 nanometers (nm) in size.
That is why the study authors were not able to take photos of the mRNA vaccine lipid nanoparticle capsules were are approximately 80-100 nm (Pfizer) or 90-120 nm (Moderna) in size.
In fact, the study does not show any any object in the nanometre scale! The photos they took were of really massive objects in the micrometer scale – 1000x larger than nanometer.
The study authors also provided a 10 micrometer scale in their photos. This tells us that the objects they saw were, for most part, over 100 µm in size. It is possible that some of these structures are even 500-1000 µm (1 mm) in size, and might therefore be visible to the naked eye!

IJVTPR does not appear to be a credible science journal
The study was published in a journal called the International Journal of Vaccine Theory, Practice, and Research (IJVTPR). If you have never heard of the IJVTPR, you are not alone. I have never heard of it either.
In fact, it appears to have been established only in 2020 – during the COVID-19 pandemic. And according to the New Lines Magazine, it does not appear to be a credible science journal:
The International Journal of Vaccine Theory, Practice, and Research could easily be mistaken for a respectable publication. Its stated aim is to “bring rigorous independent and unbiased research to the subject of vaccine safety and analysis.”
All 18 members of its editorial board have university degrees, though that doesn’t make them relevant authorities. The editor-in-chief, for example, is neither a scientist nor a medical doctor but a retired professor of linguistics. Its senior editor, meanwhile, is a Canadian neuroscientist with a long history of spreading scare stories about vaccines.
In short, the International Journal of Vaccine Theory, Practice, and Research is not the publisher of rigorous and unbiased research that it purports to be.
