McCullagh 1   \nThe global population is increasingly reliant on vaccines to maintain population health with billions of doses used annually in immunisation programmes. Substandard and falsiﬁed vaccines are becoming more prevalent, caused by both the degradation of authentic vaccines but also deliberately falsiﬁed vaccine products. These threaten public health, and the increase in vaccine falsiﬁcation is now a major concern. There is currently no coordinated global infrastructure or screening methods to monitor vaccine supply chains. In this study, we developed and validated a matrix-assisted laser desorption/ ionisation-mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) workﬂow that used open-source machine learning and statistical analysis to distinguish authentic and falsiﬁed vaccines. We validated the method on two different MALDI-MS instruments used worldwide for clinical applications. Our results show that multivariate data modelling and diagnostic mass spectra can be used to distinguish authentic and falsiﬁed vaccines providing proof-of-concept that MALDI-MS can be used as a screening tool to monitor vaccine supply chains.  \nSafe and effective medicines are crucial to people’s health worldwide but an increase in substandard and falsiﬁed pharmaceutical products threatens public health on a global scale. The World Health Organisation estimated that over 10% of pharmaceutical products in lower and middle-income countries were substandard or falsiﬁed (SF) in 2017 and has identiﬁed SF medicines as one of the urgent health challenges for the next decade1,2.  \nReports of SF vaccine products have been increasing in recent years, including rabies, cholera, meningitis, yellow fever, hepatitis Band coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). For example, in the ﬁrst 15 months of the global COVID-19 vaccination programme, there were over 184 reports, across 48 countries, of diverted and SF COVID-19 vaccines, involving millions of doses3. A range ofadulteration and falsiﬁcation incidents have been identiﬁed,  \n1Department of Chemistry, University of Oxford, Oxford, OX1 3TA, UK. 2Department of Biochemistry, University of Oxford,
