Virus Expression
Streamline the challenges of vaccine production
Vaccine production is complex. Manufacturers face strict regulatory controls during the development process while also anticipating global demand and the eventual production challenges of quantity and quality. Time-to-market and cost effectiveness are constant, critical considerations. Finding high performance media, tools and support are critical success factors in accelerating vaccine development and streamlining manufacturing efforts.
Our bioproduction products and services are here to support you in these challenges with performance Gibco media, advanced technology tools and knowledgeable expert support to help optimize your workflow, minimize risk and improve cost effectiveness.
What’s new: Gibco Residual TrypLE Enzyme ELISA Kit
Introducing the Residual TrypLE Enzyme ELISA Kit, a solid-phase sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit for the quantitative detection of the recombinant Gibco TrypLE enzyme.
Key features of the Residual TrypLE Enzyme ELISA Kit:
- High specificity—The antibodies are tailored for the TrypLE enzyme to enable unmatched specificity
- Rapid results—Results in just 1.5 hours helps boost your workflow efficiency
- Strong sensitivity—Detection as low as 0.032 ng/mL enables precise TrypLE enzyme assessment
- Compatibility—Works seamlessly with all forms and concentrations of TrypLE enzyme
- Reliability—Lot-to-lot consistency provided for reproducible results, helping establish trust in experiments
Performance serum-free media
Gibco performance serum-free media (SFM) and animal origin-free (AOF) media deliver superior cell growth and virus production to serum-supplemented systems while maximizing consistency and reliability and simplifying downstream purification.
Gibco CD BHK-21 Production Medium is the first cell culture medium supporting complete serum-free and protein-free processes for BHK-21 cells. Because it does not require supplementation with serum or other undefined components, Gibco CD BHK-21 Production Medium eliminates the serum associated risks while allowing you to achieve better cell growth and more consistent viral yields.
Maintain high level of cell viability:
Without supplementation with FBS or TPB (Tryptose Phosphate Broth) CD BHK-21 Production Medium supports suspension BHK-21 cells longer than GMEM supported both by TPB as well as 10% FBS. Cell viabilities started to decline after 24 hours in GMEM, whereas they were stable for four days in CD BHK-21 Production Medium.
Achieve high peak cell densities:
Over four days of culture suspension BHK-21 cells achieve well over two times the densities achieved with GMEM supplemented with TPB (Tryptose Phosphate Broth) and 10% FBS.
Viral titration results in VERO cells
Viral production in triplicate plates using VERO cells grown in either Gibco VP-SFM or EMEM with 10% FBS shows equivalent results
Production of infectious bovine rhinotracheitis (IBR) virus in MDCK cells
The titer of the inoculum was 1.3 x 108 TCID50/mL. Cultures were carried for 6 subcultures in the respective medium. Cell counts shown are average counts (x 106) per flask. The length of incubation was dictated by % cytopathic effects (CPE) in serum control. The two media gave equivalent results.

Reduced-serum media
An economical solution to reduce serum is to replace it with a low serum-requiring medium, supplemented with other growth-promoting factors. Premium Gibco Opti-MEM, a Minimum Essential Medium (MEM) which is supplemented with 2%-4% FBS, actually outperforms ordinary media supplemented with 10% FBS in many critical applications. In some applications, researchers reduced serum requirements by at least 50%. Reducing serum also minimizes the risk of adventitious agents responsible for diseases, such as bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE).
Opti-MEM I medium outperforms EMEM with more FBS
For very low serum supplementation (<1%) with anchorage-dependent cells, Opti-MEM I medium should be supplemented with 500 to 1,000 mg/L calcium chloride. The addition of HEPES provides added pH control to the cultures.
