ACC 292
Cell line:
SF-158 - Discontinued
DSMZ no.:
ACC 292
Species:
insect - fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) (Spodoptera frugiperda)
Cell type:
Origin:
cloned from the parent line, IPLB-SF-21-AE, derived from pupal ovarian tissue of the fall armyworm (species Spodoptera frugiperda, family Noctuidae, order Lepidoptera); cells are susceptible to infection with MNPV and other Baculoviruses; cells can be used with Baculovirus expression vectors; the line was discontinued because it was determined by targeted sequencing of the rhabdovirus genome that it is highly likely cell line SF-9
Reference(s):
Biosafety level:
1
Permissions and restrictions:
DSMZ Cell Culture Data:
Morphology:
Medium:
80-90% TC 100 medium + 10-20% h.i. FBS (or 80-90% Grace´s insect medium + 10-20% h.i. FBS supplemented with L-Glutamine, hydrolyzed lactalbumin and yeastolate)
Subculture:
split culture 1:4 to 1:5 every 5-6 day (cells grow adherent, but trypsin is not necessary as cells can be detached by tapping the flask or with a rubber scraper); seed out about 1-2 x 106 cells/25 cm2
Incubation:
25-29 °C without CO2 ; temperature below 23 °C may lead to reduced growth and loss of adherence
Doubling time:
about 70 hours (at room temperature)
Harvest:
cell harvest of about 0.2 x 106 cells/cm2
Storage:
frozen with 70% medium, 20% FBS, 10% DMSO
DSMZ Scientific Data:
Mycoplasma:
negative in DAPI, microbiological culture, RNA hybridization, PCR assays
Species validation:
Species-level identification was carried out by mitochondrial Cytochrome C Oxidase Subunit 1 (COI) DNA barcoding according standard ANSI/ATCC ASN-0003-2015 and revealed Spodoptera frugiperda species.
Viruses:
