SCALING OF VERO CELL CULTURE FOR THE PRODUCTION OF BIOLOGICAL PRODUCTS

Abstract

vaccine production is considered the most effective way to prevent and control the spread of infectious diseases. The transplantable Vero cell line is now widely used for vaccine production.The aim of this study was to investigate the optimal parameters for growing Vero cell cultures in cell factories for large-scale vaccine production. For the scaling process, the seed concentration of cells was determined. The results of the studies showed that at a cell inoculum concentration of 2.0x105 cells/ml, a monolayer is formed in 1-2 days and is the most optimal for cultivating most viruses. Multilayer cell culture systems for industrial scales provide a one-stop production solution. The convenient and cost-effective format of cell factories saves space, time and labor and reduces the risk of contamination.In this paper, Vero cell culture is scaled up in cell factories because this cell culture method is necessary to create cost-effective workflows in large volumes. The study showed that the inoculum concentration, the cell proliferation index, and the ratio of the dispersing mixture for cell removal are comparable to routinely used T-vials.
