Abstract
Viruses from the family Orthomyxoviridae, particularly influenza virus, can grown in monkey kidney cells, particularly Vero Cells, after passaging the cells in a serum-free or protein-free medium. The use of a proteolytic enzyme, especially trypsin, also aids in the propagation of the virus. The method allows for the virus to be produced to be used in a vaccine.
