Characteristics
Comments
Derived by adaptation of egg culture product ATCC® VR-331™ to Aedes albopictus clone C6/36 cells (ATCC® CRL-1660™). ATCC® VR-331™ and ATCC® VR-1853™ have not been compared for sequence or infectivity in egg culture and tissue culture.
Handling information
Host
Aedes albopictus clone C6/36 (ATCC CRL-1660)
Effects
cell rounding; cell sloughing; CPE
Complete medium
EMEM (ATCC® 30-2003™) + 5% FBS (ATCC® 30-2020™)
Temperature
28°C
Incubation
6-8 days at 28°C in a humidified, air atmosphere incubator, until CPE is progressed through 80% of the monolayer.
Recommendation for infection
Plate cells 18-24 hours prior to infection and infect when cultures are 80-90% confluent. Remove medium and inoculate with a small volume of virus (e.g., 1 mL per 25 cm2) diluted to provide an optimal MOI (e.g., 0.01). Adsorb 1-2 hours at 28°C in a humidified, air atmosphere incubator. End adsorption by adding virus growth medium.
