Beschreibung

Biochem/physiol Actions

African green monkey kidney cells, serum-free

Vero cell line (Sigma catalog no. 84113001) adapted to grow in the chemically defined protein- and peptide-free medium Hektor G (Cell Culture Technologies). This cell line is substrate dependent, i.e., adherent and may be suitable for the replication of viral particles.

Preparation Note

Hektor G medium (Cell Culture Technologies http://www.cellculture.com/) + 4 mM L-Glutamine (G7513). When freezing cells down use Hektor G medium + 4 mM L-Glutamine (G7513) + 10% DMSO (D2650).

Split sub-confluent cultures (70-80%) 1:3 to 1:6, i.e., seeding at 1-3x10,000 cells/cm². Use EDTA only (no trypsin); 5% CO₂; 37 °C.
