β¦ Synopsis
Shake flasks were successfully employed for the cultivation of Spodoptera frugiperda (Sf-9) insect cells and for the production of beta-galactosidase, a recombinant model protein, utilizing the baculovirus expression vector system. The culture doubling time and maximal cell density were 20 h and 5 x 10(6) cells/ml respectively. The optimal liquid volumes for flasks rotating at 100 rpm were 25-40% of the flask total volume. Enzyme production (about 600 mg/l) was best at a multiplicity of infection of between 1 and 20 and at a cell density at time of infection of 0.7 x 10(6) cells/ml. At a rotation speed of 100 rpm, Pluronic F-68 had no effect on growth and enzyme production.

Fed-batch culture can offer significant improvement in recombinant protein production compared to batch culture in the baculovirus expression vector system (BEVS), as shown by Nguyen et al. (1993) and Bedard et al. (1994) among others. However, a thorough analysis of fed-batch culture to determine i
A mathematical model has been developed that predicts the cell population dynamics and production of recombinant protein and infective extracellular virus progeny by insect cells after infection with baculovirus in batch suspension culture. Infection in the model is based on the rate of virus attach
The baculovirus-expression vector system (BEVS) has been widely used for the experimental production of many human and animal single-and multiunit vaccines, heterologous proteins, and viral insecticides.

In order to develop an efficient process for large-scale production of recombinant protein, various factors were studied which affect the productivity of Sf-9 (Spodoptera frugiperda) insect cells when using the baculovirus expression system. It was shown that upon infection with the Bac-BRV6L recomb
It has been shown that the growth of Spodoptera frugiperda cells is significantly reduced or ceased under oxygen limiting culture conditions. This paper describes the USC of a new membrane-aerated spinner flask which was compared to conventional surface-aerated spinner flasks with regard to growth o
