Abstract

The current study was conducted to determine to what extent human platelet lysate (HPL) can be used to enhance the growth of three cell lines used for propagation of Bovine Ephemeral Fever Virus (BEFV) and Rabies virus (RV) for vaccine production. HPL; Fetal Calf Serum (FCS) and Newborn Calf Serum (NBCS) were used as supplements to the used cell culture medium (Minimum Essential Medium “MEMâ€) for passaging of three cell lines including baby hamster kidney (BHK-21); African green monkey kidney (VERO) and Madin Derby canine kidney (MDCK). Through three successive cell culture passages; for each cell line; it was found that HPL supported growth and propagation of BHK-21, VERO and  MDCK cell lines without altering their morphologic and functional characteristics. It has been accepted as a suitable alternative to FBS and NBCS, and it can be used in vaccinal production.
