Abstract
A single-use fixed-bed bioreactor (iCELLis nano) can be used for cultivating non adherent insect cells, which can be then recovered for scaling up or for harvesting a membrane-associated viral glycoprotein with high quality in terms of preserved protein structure and biological function. Here, we describe the procedures for establishing genetically modified Drosophila melanogaster Schneider 2 (S2) cell cultures in the iCELLis nano bioreactor and for quantifying by ELISA the recombinant rabies virus glycoprotein (rRVGP) synthesized. By using the described protocol of production, the following performance can be regularly achieved: 1.7±0.6 × 1E10 total cells; 2.4±0.8 × 1E7 cells/mL and 1.2±0.9μg of rRVGP/1E7 cells; 1.5±0.8mg of total rRVGP.
