The Baculovirus Expression Vector System (BEVS) is a powerful eucaryotic vector system, and Spodoptera frugiperda (Sf) cell lines are widely used as hosts for BEVS. However, the majority of Sf9 and Sf21 cell lines contain a Sf-rhabdovirus which is considered a process contaminant and must be eliminated during the process. To improve the safety profile of the BEVS production method, we offer an Sf9 rhabdovirus-negative (Sf-RVN®) cell line with a companion chemically-defined medium. Combined, they form the Sf-RVN® Platform which provides a performant rhabdovirus-free BEVS alternative to produce recombinant protein, VLP, and AAV and enhances risk mitigation.
This webinar includes:
- an introduction to insect cell expression systems
- an overview of the Sf-RVN® Platform benefits
- a performance of the Sf-RVN® Platform for the production of recombinant proteins and AAV.
