Abstract

Roller culturing of MDCK and Vero cells in an experimental nutrient medium based on soy flour hydrolysate, plant material obtained using the bromelain plant enzyme, was studied. The medium supplemented with 2 or 3% fetal calf serum (FCS) had a strong growth-stimulating effect on Vero and MDCK and cells, respectively, and did not alter the cell morphology. A/Solomon Islands/03/06 (H1N1) and B/Malaysia/2506/04 influenza vaccine viruses were grown on MDCK and Vero cell cultures obtained as a result of culturing in rollers on media containing soy flour hydrolysate and FCS (2 or 3%, respectively). The titer of the viruses was high in the presence of either trypsin (2 μg/ml) or bromelain (20 μg/ml).
