Virus Susceptibility: Junin virus
Machupo virus
Lassa virus
Marburg virus
Zaire Ebola virus
Comments: This line is a clone of VERO 76 (ATCC CRL-1587). It was cloned by the dilution method into microtiter plates in 1979 by P.J. Price. When infected with the hemorrhagic fever viruses [Machupo (Bolivian), Junin (Argentinian), Lassa (African)], Marburg or Ebola viruses, these cells exhibit cytopathic effects. Plaques are also produced. VERO C1008 exhibits some degree of contact inhibition after forming a monolayer and is therefore useful in growing slow replicating viruses.
Propagation: ATCC complete growth medium: The base medium for this cell line is ATCC-formulated Eagle's Minimum Essential Medium, Catalog No. 30-2003. To make the complete growth medium, add the following components to the base medium: fetal bovine serum to a final concentration of 10%.
Temperature: 37.0°C
Subculturing: Protocol:
  1. Remove and discard culture medium.
  2. Briefly rinse the cell layer with 0.25% (w/v) Trypsin- 0.53 mM EDTA solution to remove all traces of serum which contains trypsin inhibitor.
  3. Add 2.0 to 3.0 ml of Trypsin-EDTA solution to flask and observe cells under an inverted microscope until cell layer is dispersed (usually within 5 to 15 minutes).
    Note: To avoid clumping do not agitate the cells by hitting or shaking the flask while waiting for the cells to detach. Cells that are difficult to detach may be placed at 37°C to facilitate dispersal.
  4. Add 6.0 to 8.0 ml of complete growth medium and aspirate cells by gently pipetting.
  5. Add appropriate aliquots of the cell suspension to new culture vessels.
  6. Incubate cultures at 37°C.

Subcultivation Ratio: A subcultivation ratio of 1:4 is recommended
