Newsletter – Fall 2026: SVF (Simulated Vaginal Fluid)

SVF (Simulated Vaginal Fluid)

By: Dr. Maria Ofitserova

Growing interest in women’s health has led to increased offerings of pharmaceutical formulations intended for vaginal delivery, as well as intravaginal medical devices and sensors.

Pickering Laboratories’ Simulated Vaginal Fluid is formulated to mimic the composition and properties of vaginal secretions in healthy, non-pregnant, pre-menopausal women. It reproduces key chemical characteristics known to influence the performance and efficacy of intravaginal drug delivery systems and can be used to evaluate the dissolution, bioavailability, and bioadhesive properties of vaginal preparations, as well as to test corrosion and chemical leaching from medical equipment

We offer a few different formulations, that are sure to be suitable for any of your testing needs!  Of course, if you cannot find what you’re looking for, please reach out and we’d be happy to discuss any custom work:
