Vero cells are highly versatile and widely used for both small-scale and large-scale vaccine manufacturing.
Key Advantages of Our Vero Cell Culture Media:
- Microcarrier Compatibility: Optimized for growth with microcarriers, enhancing scalability and efficiency in vaccine production.
- Serum-Free and Animal-Origin-Free Formulation: Low-protein content ensures reduced complexity and improved safety in the production process.
- Easy Cell Adaptation: Most cells can be directly adapted to these media, streamlining the transition to serum-free conditions.
History and Significance of Vero Cells:
-
Origin and Use: Vero cells are derived from the kidney of the African green monkey and have been licensed for producing live and inactivated viral vaccines. They are widely accepted by regulatory bodies for virus production.
- Regulatory Acceptance: With over 40 years of use, Vero cells are the preferred choice for vaccine manufacturing globally due to their reliability and compliance with regulatory standards.
Future Directions in Vaccine Production:
-
Regulatory Trends: There is a growing preference to avoid animal-derived products like serum in vaccine production due to regulatory pressures. Our media are designed to meet these demands.
- Innovative Solutions: Capricorn Scientific offers serum-free and animal-component-free media that support Vero cell growth on microcarriers in controlled environments, ideal for vaccine production.
