Abstract:
Background: Vero cell (ATCC) is from kidney of Blue Monkey in Africa. Because of its strong points such as non tumor form, non exotic virus infection, this cell strain is commonly used for vaccin development in the world. Objective: To determine the quality of vero cell supplying by Japan Polio-myelitis Research Center and WHO vero cell supplying by the Company for Vaccine and Biological Production No.1 in use for develop rota vaccine. Subjects and method:A study was conducted in 2 kinds of vero cell (one ATCC 134 generation supplying by Japan Polio-myelitis Research Center and another WHO ATTC 137 generation supplying by the Company for Vaccine and Biological Production No.1) using standard methods. Results and Conclusion: Both these ATCCs had no exotic agents in generation from 134 to 137. The vero working cell bank for vaccine development has been established by the POLYVAC by using standard methods, in accordance with the WHO regulations. The vero working cells established by POLYVAC had the same quality as that of Vabiotech cell bank. Rota virus strains multiplied well on WHO ATTC 137 generation and ATCC 134 generation supplying by Japan Polio-myelitis Research Center.
