Comments
Derived by adaptation of primary cell culture product ATCC® VR-801™ to BT cells (ATCC® CRL-1390™). ATCC® VR-1855™ and ATCC® VR-801™ have not been compared for sequence or infectivity in primary cell culture and tissue culture.
Ensure that FBS is free of BVDV prior to use with BT cells.
Effect on Host
CPE, refractile rounding and cell degeneration
Recommended Host
BT cells (ATCC® CRL-1390™)
Growth Conditions
Temperature: 37°C
Recommendations for Infection: Plate cells 18-24 hours prior to infection and infect when cultures are 70-80% confluent. Remove medium and inoculate with a small volume of virus (e.g., 1 mL per 25 cm2) diluted to provide an optimal MOI (e.g., 0.1). Adsorb 1-2 hours at 37°C in a humidified 5% CO2 atmosphere. End adsorption by adding virus growth medium.
Incubation: 2-3 days at 37°C in a humidified 5% CO2 atmosphere, until CPE is progressed through 80% of the monolayer.
