Vero cells are a lineage of cells used in cell cultures. [1] The 'Vero' lineage was isolated from kidney epithelial cells extracted from an African green monkey ( Chlorocebus sp.; formerly called Cercopithecus aethiops , this group of monkeys has been split into several different species).

The Vero cell line was initiated in 1962 from the kidney tissue derived from a normal, adult African green monkey. The cell line can be used in a variety of applications, including the detection of verotoxins, detection of virus in ground beef, efficacy testing, the study of malaria, media testing, and mycoplasma testing.

Vero cells are derived from the kidney of an African green monkey, and are one of the more commonly used mammalian continuous cell lines in microbiology, and molecular and cell biology research. This unit includes protocols for the growth and ...

A continuous African green monkey kidney cell line, called Vero, has come into use as a cell substrate for viral vaccines, and a purified Vero cell culture rabies vaccine (PVRV) based on growth of virus in that cell line has been developed and licensed by Sanofi Pasteur in Europe and in many countries in the developing world. 167 An advantage ...

The Vero cell line, an immortalized mammalian cell model derived from the kidney epithelial cells of the African green monkey, stands at the forefront of research in virology, microbiology, and cellular and molecular biology.

The Vero cell line is considered the most used cell line to produce viral vectors and vaccines. Vero cells do not secrete the signal peptide interferon upon infection with viruses, impairing the anti-viral defenses. This makes it possible for a large number of …

COVID-19 virus may learn from the experience of developing rabies virus vaccines using Vero cells, which made Vero cells transform the adherent state into suspension culture (serum-free culture). The infection efficiency and virus titer were detected after transfecting with …

Vero cell lines are used less frequently in biological studies than the more popular HeLa cell line, in part because this is a non-human cell line. However, Vero cell lineages are still widely used for screening purposes for bacterial toxins, viruses and for parasite studies.

Vero cell samples (at p127 and p139, serum-added and serum-free cultured), as well as the six TC samples and positive (Hep-2) and negative (MRC-5 and AGMK) controls were inoculated into nude mice to verify tumorigenic potential in vivo.

Through this study, we established a high-efficiency exclusive medium for Vero cells, which significantly improved the growth efficiency of cells, providing a new reference for the optimization of the medium and the continuous improvement of productivity of the cell matrix.
