Production Newcastle Disease Virus Using Vero Cell Culture

Vero 세포배양을 이용한 뉴캐슬병 바이러스 생산

Studies on the production of Newcastle disease virus(NDV) were carried out to optimize culture conditions such as initial pH, temperature, serum concentration, multiplicity of infection(M.O.I.) as well as the addition of polycation, antioxidant, and DMSO. Initial pH from 7.2 to 8.1 showed little difference on NDV production but the initial pH below 6.8 resulted in the negative effect. The highest NDV titer was obtained at 0.1 M.O.I. In addition, the maximum production of virus was achieved at 2% FBS and optimum temperature was found to be $34^{\circ}C$. Treatment of polycoation increased the virus production. When ascorbic acid was added as an antioxidant, NDV production was also enhanced. Utilization of DMSO, a well-known permeabilizing agent, showed an inhibitory effect on the propagation of NDV.

Vero 세포를 이용한 뉴캐슬병 바이러스 생산에서 pH, 온도, 혈청농도, M.O.I. 등의 최적조건을 구하고 polycation, 항산화제, 그리고 DMSO 등의 첨가제가 바이러스 생산에 미치는 영향에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 뉴캐슬병 바이러스의 최적 배양조건은 초기 p pH 7.2, 혈청농도 2 % FBS, 바이러스 접종량 0.1 M.O.I. 및 바이러스 증식온도 $34^{\circ}C$로 확인하였다. Polycation 인 DEAE-dextran, poly-L-Iysine과 항 산화제인 ascorbic acid는 각 $15\mu\textrm{g}/ml, 3\mu\textrm{g}/ml$그리고 0.1mM의 최적농도로 첨가했을 때 대조군에 비해 상당히 증대된 최대 바이러스 수율을 얻을 수 있었다.
