Definitions
- the present invention relates to a viral agent.
- PRRS Phorcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome
- the disease in sows is characterized by late abortions, stillbirths and the birth of mummified and poorly-performing piglets.
- the primary infection agent is assumed to be a new RNA virus that multiplies in lung alveolar macrophages.
- respiratory and reproductive diseases are caused or intensified by secondary or multiple infections with other viruses or viruses and bacteria. It is therefore desirable not only to protect pigs against the main pathogen of the PRRS, but also against the pathogens which are jointly responsible for respiratory and reproductive diseases.
- the present invention relates to:
- Vaccine against diseases of the respiratory and reproductive tract of pigs in particular in connection with the disease complex called PRRS, characterized in that they contain, as an antigenic material, parainfluenza viruses and their variants and mutants in living, attenuated or recombinant form, in whole or in part or contains fragments.

Description
VAKZINE ZUR PRÄVENTION VON RESPIRATIONS- UND REPRODUKTIONSERKRANKUNGEN DE SCHWEINES , DIE PARAINFLUENZAVIREN ENTHÄLT. VACCINE FOR THE PREVENTION OF REPIRATIONAL AND REPRODUCTION DISEASES OF THE PIGS, CONTAINING PARAIN INFLUENCE VIRUSES.
Die "vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein virales Agens. Verfahren zur Anzucht und Vermehrung dieses Agens sowie die Nutzung dieses Agens alleine oder in Kom¬ bination mit anderen bakteriellen oder viralen Erregern als Impfstoffkomponente zum Schutz von Schweinen vor Erkrankungen des Respirations- und Reproduk- tionsstraktes.The present invention relates to a viral agent. A method for cultivating and multiplying this agent and using this agent alone or in combination with other bacterial or viral pathogens as a vaccine component for protecting pigs against diseases of the respiratory and reproductive tract.
Ende der 80er bis Anfang der 90er Jahre trat in Nordamerika bzw. Europa eine neue, sich seuchenhaft ausbreitende und mit hohen wirtschaftlichen Verlusten einhergehende Schweinekrankheit auf. Diese wird mittlerweile offiziell "Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome" (PRRS) genannt.From the late 80s to the early 90s, a new, epidemic spreading pig disease with high economic losses appeared in North America and Europe. This is now officially called "Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome" (PRRS).
Die klinischen Hauptsymptome dieser seuchenhaften Erkrankungen sind Fruchtbar¬ keitsstörungen bei Sauen und Atemwegserkrankungen bei Ferkeln und Mast¬ schweinen.The main clinical symptoms of these epidemic diseases are fertility disorders in sows and respiratory diseases in piglets and fattening pigs.
Neben den unregelmäßig auftretenden unspezifischen Symptomen wie Inappetenz, Apathie und Fieber, ist die Erkrankung bei Sauen durch Spätaborte, Totgeburten und durch die Geburt mumifizierter und lebensschwacher Ferkel gekennzeichnet.In addition to the irregular non-specific symptoms such as anorexia, apathy and fever, the disease in sows is characterized by late abortions, stillbirths and the birth of mummified and poorly-performing piglets.
Infolge der Seuche kommt es gehäuft zu Symptomen aus dem Mastitis-Metritis- Agalaktie (MMA)-Komplex und zu Umrauschen.As a result of the epidemic, symptoms from the mastitis-metritis-agalactic (MMA) complex and noise come up.
Sind in einer endemischen Region zu Beginn der Seuche hauptsächlich Saug- undAre in an endemic region at the beginning of the epidemic mainly suction and
Läuferferkel betroffen, so erkranken im weiteren Verlauf zunehmend Mast- schweine. Hierbei können, neben den hauptsächlich vorkommenden Erkrankungen
des Respirationstraktes, begleitend auch vermehπ andere klassische Schweine¬ erkrankungen beobachtet werden. Die Seuche verursacht erhebliche wirtschaftliche Verluste, die sich neben den direkten Tierverlusten aus der Verringerung der Pro¬ duktionskennzahlen ergibt (Abferkel- und Absetzergebnisse, Trächtigkeitsrate, Lebendgewichtzunahme).As piglet piglets are affected, fattening pigs become increasingly ill in the further course. Here, in addition to the mainly occurring diseases of the respiratory tract, accompanied by an increasing number of other classic swine diseases. The epidemic causes considerable economic losses which, in addition to direct animal losses, result from the reduction in the production figures (farrowing and weaning results, pregnancy rate, increase in live weight).
Als primäres Infektionsagens nimmt man ein neues, sich in Lungenalveolarmakro- phagen vermehrendes RNS-Virus an. Andererseits deuten weitergehende epi¬ demiologische Untersuchungen darauf hin, daß Respirations- und Reproduk¬ tionserkrankungen durch Sekundär- bzw. Mehrfachinfektionen mit anderen Viren bzw. Viren und Bakterien mit hervorgerufen oder verstärkt werden. Es ist daher wünschenswert Schweine nicht nur gegen den Haupterreger der PRRS zu schüt¬ zen, sondern auch gegen die Erreger die mitverantwortlich sind für Respirations¬ und Reproduktionserkrankungen.The primary infection agent is assumed to be a new RNA virus that multiplies in lung alveolar macrophages. On the other hand, further epidemiological studies indicate that respiratory and reproductive diseases are caused or intensified by secondary or multiple infections with other viruses or viruses and bacteria. It is therefore desirable not only to protect pigs against the main pathogen of the PRRS, but also against the pathogens which are jointly responsible for respiratory and reproductive diseases.

Die exprimierten Immunogene werden entweder direkt in Form der Expressions¬ systeme (Kultur Substrat und/oder Zellen) oder nach Aufbereitung und Reinigung mittels biochemischer und/oder immunologischer Methoden und gegebenenfalls nach Konzentrierung oder Verdünnung als antigenes Material verwendet.The expressed immunogens are used either directly in the form of the expression systems (culture substrate and / or cells) or after preparation and purification by means of biochemical and / or immunological methods and, if appropriate, after concentration or dilution as an antigenic material.
Geeignet zur Reinigung sind z.B. Affinitäts- oder Gel-chromatographische Ver- fahren, bei denen die Immunogene vom Expressionssystem, gegebenenfalls nach dessen Aufschluß durch Detergentien-Behandlung, abgetrennt oder isoliert werden.Suitable for cleaning are e.g. Affinity or gel chromatographic processes in which the immunogens are separated or isolated from the expression system, if appropriate after its disruption by detergent treatment.
Zur Herstellung von Virusantigenen, die von Vektorsystemen exprimiert werden, wird zunächst das Virusgenom gewonnen.
Zur Gewinnung des Virusgenoms erfolgt zunächst die Vermehrung der Viren in üblicher Weise einerseits in Gewebekulturen animaler Zellen als Primarzellen oder permanenten Zell-Linien, z.B. in Schweine-Zellen, Affen-Zellen oder Rinder-Zel¬ len, bevorzugt in Schweinenieren-Zellen wie z.B. der geklonten, permanenten Schweinenieren-Zelle PK15 (ATCC CCL33 oder deren Abkömmlinge) oder der primären Schweinenieren-Zelle EPK oder Affennieren-Zellen wie den permanenten Affennieren-Zellen BGM (Flow 03-240 oder deren Abkömmlinge) oder Vero (ATCC CCL81 oder deren Abkömmlinge) oder Rindernieren-Zellen wie der permanenten Rindernieren-Zelle MDBK (ATCC CCL22 oder deren Abkömmlinge) und andererseits in embryonierten Hühnereiern (z.B. Valo-Bruteier, Fa. Lohmann). Die Vermehrung in Zellkulturen erfolgt in an sich bekannter Weise in stationären Roller- oder Carrier-Kulturen in Form von geschlossenen Zellverbänden (Mono- layern) oder in Suspensions-Kulturen. Als Vermehrungsmedien für die Zellen werden eingesetzt alle an sich bekannten Zellkulturmedien z.B. beschrieben im Produktkatalog der Fa. Gibco BRL GmbH, Dieselstraße 5, 76344 Eggenstein, wie insbesondere das Minimal Essential Medium (MEM). das als wesentliche Be¬ standteile Aminosäuren, Vitamine, Salze und Kohlenhydrate enthält, komplettiert mit Puff ersub stanzen wie z.B. Natrium-Bicarbonat (NaHCO3) oder Hydroxyethyl- piperazin-N-2-ethansulfonsäure (Hepes) und gegebenenfalls Tierseren, wie z.B. Seren von Rindern, Pferden bzw. deren Föten. Besonders bevorzugt eingesetzt wird Eagles MEM mit einem Gehalt an NaHCÖ3 von 0.1-5 g/1, vorzugsweise 0,5- 3 g/1 sowie fötales Kälberserum in einer Konzentration von 1-30 Vol-%>, vor¬ zugsweise 2-10 Vol-%.In order to produce virus antigens which are expressed by vector systems, the virus genome is first obtained. In order to obtain the virus genome, the viruses are first multiplied in the usual way in tissue cultures of animal cells as primary cells or permanent cell lines, for example in pig cells, monkey cells or bovine cells, preferably in pig kidney cells such as, for example cloned, permanent pig kidney cell PK15 (ATCC CCL33 or its derivatives) or the primary pig kidney cell EPK or monkey kidney cells such as the permanent monkey kidney cells BGM (Flow 03-240 or its derivatives) or Vero (ATCC CCL81 or its derivatives) or bovine kidney cells such as the permanent bovine kidney cell MDBK (ATCC CCL22 or its derivatives) and, on the other hand, in embryonic chicken eggs (eg Valo hatching eggs, Lohmann). The multiplication in cell cultures takes place in a manner known per se in stationary roller or carrier cultures in the form of closed cell groups (monolayers) or in suspension cultures. All cell culture media known per se are used as propagation media for the cells, for example described in the product catalog of Gibco BRL GmbH, Dieselstrasse 5, 76344 Eggenstein, such as in particular the Minimal Essential Medium (MEM). which contains amino acids, vitamins, salts and carbohydrates as essential components, supplemented with buffer substances such as sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO 3 ) or hydroxyethylpiperazine-N-2-ethanesulfonic acid (Hepes) and optionally animal sera such as sera from Cattle, horses and their fetuses. Eagles MEM with a NaHCÖ 3 content of 0.1-5 g / 1, preferably 0.5-3 g / 1 and fetal calf serum in a concentration of 1-30% by volume, preferably 2-10, are particularly preferably used Vol%.
Die zur Vermehrung der Viren dienenden Zellen und Zellrasen werden in üblicher Weise nahezu bis zur Konfluenz oder bis zur optimaler Zelldichte vermehrt. Vor ihrer Infektion mit Viren wird bevorzugt das Zellvermehrungsmedium entfernt und die Zellen bevorzugt mit Virusvermehrungsmedium gewaschen. Als Virusvermeh¬ rungsmedium werden eingesetzt, alle an sich bekannten Zellkulturmedien, wie insbesondere das oben genannte MEM. Danach wird mit einer Virussuspension in- fiziert. In der Virussuspension liegt das Virus im Virusvermehrungsmedium derart verdünnt vor, daß mit einer MOI (= multiplicity of infection, entspricht dem Ver¬ hältnis der Anzahl der infektiösen Viruspartikel zur Anzahl der vorhandenen Zellen) von 0,01-50, bevorzugt 0,1-10 infiziert wird.
Die Vermehrung der Viren erfolgt mit oder ohne Zusatz von Tierseren. Für den Fall, daß Serum eingesetzt wird, wird dieses zum Vermehrungsmedium in einer Konzentration von 1-30 Vol-%, vorzugsweise 2-10 Vol-% zugegeben.The cells and cell turf used to multiply the viruses are multiplied in the usual way almost to confluence or to the optimal cell density. Before being infected with viruses, the cell growth medium is preferably removed and the cells are preferably washed with virus growth medium. All known cell culture media, such as in particular the MEM mentioned above, are used as the virus propagation medium. The virus is then infected with a virus suspension. In the virus suspension, the virus is diluted in the virus propagation medium in such a way that with an MOI (= multiplicity of infection, corresponds to the ratio of the number of infectious virus particles to the number of cells present) from 0.01-50, preferably 0.1- 10 is infected. The viruses are propagated with or without the addition of animal sera. If serum is used, it is added to the propagation medium in a concentration of 1-30% by volume, preferably 2-10% by volume.
Infektion und Virusvermehrung erfolgen bei Temperaturen zwischen Raumtempe- ratur und 40°C, bevorzugt zwischen 32 und 39°C, besonders bevorzugt bei 37°C über mehrere Tage, bevorzugt bis zur vollständigen Zerstörung der infizierten Zel¬ len.Infection and virus multiplication take place at temperatures between room temperature and 40 ° C., preferably between 32 and 39 ° C., particularly preferably at 37 ° C. for several days, preferably until the infected cells are completely destroyed.
Das virushaltige Medium der infizierten Zellen wird weiter aufgearbeitet, z.B. durch Entfernung der Zellen und Zelltrümmer mittels Filtration mit Porengrößen von-z.B. 0,1-0,45 μm und/oder Zentrifugation bis zu 10.000 x g.The virus-containing medium of the infected cells is processed further, e.g. by removing the cells and cell debris by means of filtration with pore sizes of e.g. 0.1-0.45 μm and / or centrifugation up to 10,000 x g.
Die Vermehrung in embryonierten Hühnereiern erfolgt in an sich bekannter Weise in der Allantoishöhle von Hühner-Bruteiern, die 9-12 Tage, bevorzugt 10 Tage bei einer Temperatur von 37-39°C, bevorzugt 38,5°C und einer relativen Luftfeuch¬ tigkeit von 30-90%, bevorzugt 50-60% in einem handelsüblichen Brutschrank, be- vorzugt einem Motorbrüter vorbebrütet werden.The multiplication in embryonated chicken eggs takes place in a manner known per se in the Allantoic cavity of chicken hatching eggs, which lasts 9-12 days, preferably 10 days, at a temperature of 37-39 ° C., preferably 38.5 ° C. and a relative atmospheric humidity 30-90%, preferably 50-60%, in a commercial incubator, preferably a motor breeder.
Die zur Vermehrung der Viren dienenden Bruteier werden vor der Beimpfung 1-3 Stunden, bevorzugt 2 Stunden auf dem spitzen Eipol senkrecht stehend im Brut¬ schrank gelagert und anschließend nach Vorbereitung der Injektionstelle mit 10- 200 μl, bevorzugt 75-125 μl einer Virussuspension infiziert. In der Virussus- pension liegt das Virus im Virusvermehrungsmedium in einer Konzentration von lO'-lO' KJD50/ml (50%-Kultur-infektiöse Dosis pro ml Suspension = die Ver¬ dünnungsstufe, bei der noch 50% der eingesetzten Zellkulturen infiziert würden), bevorzugt 104-105 KID50/ml vor. Als Virusvermehrungsmedium werden eingesetzt, alle an sich bekannten Zellkulturmedien, wie insbesondere das oben genannte MEM.The hatching eggs used to multiply the viruses are stored vertically in the incubator for 1-3 hours, preferably 2 hours, on the pointed egg pole before inoculation and then infected with 10-200 μl, preferably 75-125 μl, of a virus suspension after preparation of the injection site . In the virus suspension, the virus lies in the virus propagation medium in a concentration of 10'-10 'KJD 50 / ml (50% culture-infectious dose per ml suspension = the dilution stage at which 50% of the cell cultures used would still be infected ), preferably 10 4 -10 5 KID 50 / ml. All known cell culture media, such as in particular the MEM mentioned above, are used as virus propagation medium.
Infektion und Virusvermehrung erfolgen unter den oben angegebenen Brut¬ bedingungen über mehrere Tage, bevorzugt 2-5 Tage, besonders bevorzugt 3 Tage.Infection and virus multiplication take place under the breeding conditions specified above over several days, preferably 2-5 days, particularly preferably 3 days.
Die virushaltige Allantoisflüssigkeit wird gewonnen durch Absaugen nach Öffnung der Kalkschale sowie der Schalenhaut und der Chorioallantoismembran und kann
z.B. mittels Filtration mit Porengrößen von z.B. 0, 1 -0,45 μm und/oder Zentri¬ fugation bis zu 10.000 x g weiter aufgearbeitet werden.The virus-containing allantoic fluid is obtained by suctioning off after opening the lime shell as well as the skin of the shell and the chorioallantoic membrane and can eg by filtration with pore sizes of, for example, 0.1-0.45 μm and / or centrifugation up to 10,000 × g.
Die Virusreinigung, bzw. -isolierung wird eπeicht durch isopyknische oder zonale Zentrifugation in z.B. Saccharose-Dichtegradienten. Hierzu wird das virushaltige Medium bzw. die Allantoisflüssigkeit nach Entfernung der Zelltrümmer einerVirus cleaning or isolation is calibrated by isopycnic or zonal centrifugation in e.g. Sucrose density gradients. For this purpose, the virus-containing medium or the allantoic fluid is removed after removing the cell debris
Zonenzentrifugation bei 100.000 x g bis zur Sedimentation der Viruspartikel unterworfen. Ein reinere Darstellung der Viruspartikel ergibt sich durch Zonenzentrifugation in einer wäßrigen Lösung mit einer höheren Dichte als das virushaltige Medium. Als wäßrige Lösung kann z.B. eine 30-60 % w/w, bevorzugt 35-50 % w/w, gepufferte Lösung von Saccharose dienen. Ein noch höhererZone centrifugation at 100,000 x g subjected to sedimentation of the virus particles. A purer representation of the virus particles results from zone centrifugation in an aqueous solution with a higher density than the virus-containing medium. As an aqueous solution e.g. serve a 30-60% w / w, preferably 35-50% w / w, buffered solution of sucrose. An even higher one

For this purpose, the virus, freed from cells and cell debris, is concentrated by means of zone centrifugation by isopycnic or zonal density gradient centrifugation in a density gradient of, for example, 30 to 50% w / w * sucrose in buffered aqueous solution with a centrifugal acceleration of, for example, 100,000 to
150.000 x g isoliert.150,000 x g isolated.
Zur Gewinnung geeigneter Gene, die für immunogene Proteine codieren, wird aus den gereinigten Viruspartikeln zunächst das Virusgenom isoliert. Die native Virus- RNS wird vorzugsweise gewonnen durch Behandlung der gereinigten Viruspartikel mit Detergens- und Proteasen-haltigen, wäßrigen Lösungen.To obtain suitable genes that code for immunogenic proteins, the virus genome is first isolated from the purified virus particles.

Das so vorbereitete Fragment wird zusammen mit dem Polylinker und DNS-Ligase zur gezielten Insertion von definierten Restriktions- Erizym-Schnittstellen inkubiert.For this purpose, the DNA fragment carrying the insertion site is treated with a restriction enzyme such that the fragment is opened (cut) only at one point. The fragment thus prepared is incubated together with the polylinker and DNA ligase for the targeted insertion of defined restriction-erizyme sites.
Der Polylinker kann in das isolierte oder das in Shuttle-Vektoren klonierte Insertionstellen-tragende DNS-Fragment inseriert werden.The polylinker can be inserted into the isolated or the insertion site-carrying DNA fragment cloned in shuttle vectors.
Wird der Polylinker in isolierte DNS-Fragmente eingesetzt, müssen diese an¬ schließend in einen Shuttle- Vektor inseriert werden. Bei Verwendung eines Shuttle-Plasmids wird dieses in pro- oder eukaryotische Zellen, vorzugsweise Bak¬ terien, eingesetzt und vermehrt. Geeignet ist z.B. Escheήchia coli K12 und dessen Abkömmlinge. Bakterien, die DNS-Fragment-haltige Plasmide enthalten, werden selektiert.If the polylinker is used in isolated DNA fragments, these must then be inserted into a shuttle vector. If a shuttle plasmid is used, it is used and propagated in pro- or eukaryotic cells, preferably bacteria. Suitable is e.g. Escheήchia coli K12 and its descendants. Bacteria containing plasmids containing DNA fragments are selected.
Wird der Polylinker in das in Shuttle- Vektoren klonierte DNS-Fragment eingesetzt, werden diese vermehrt und selektiert.If the polylinker is inserted into the DNA fragment cloned into shuttle vectors, these are multiplied and selected.
Gene, die für ein oder mehrere Immunogene codieren (Fremd-DNS) werden in die Insertionsstellen eingesetzt.Genes that code for one or more immunogens (foreign DNA) are inserted into the insertion sites.
Falls notwendig, werden zuvor Teilsequenzen des DNS-Fragments entfernt, das die Insertionsstelle trägt. Hierzu wird das DNS-Fragment mit Restriktions-Enzymen behandelt, und die resultierenden DNS-Fragmente aufgetrennt.If necessary, partial sequences of the DNA fragment carrying the insertion site are removed beforehand. For this, the DNA fragment is treated with restriction enzymes, and the resulting DNA fragments are separated.
Zum Einsetzen der Fremd-DNS wird zunächst das isolierte oder das in Shuttle- Vektoren klonierte DNS-Fragment, das die Insertionsstelle trägt, mit ein oder
mehreren Restriktions- Enzymen behandelt und das Fragment an der Insertionsstelle bzw. am eingesetzten Polylinker geöffnet. Die Fremd-DNS wird in die so vorbereitete Insertionsstelle beispielsweise mit Hilfe von DNS-Ligasen eingefügt.To insert the foreign DNA, the isolated or the DNA fragment cloned in shuttle vectors, which carries the insertion site, is first inserted with or treated several restriction enzymes and opened the fragment at the insertion site or at the polylinker used. The foreign DNA is inserted into the insertion site prepared in this way, for example with the aid of DNA ligases.
Wird die Fremd-DNS in isolierte DNS-Fragmente eingesetzt, müssen diese an- schließend in einen Shuttle-Vektor eingesetzt werden. Bei Verwendung einesIf the foreign DNA is used in isolated DNA fragments, these must then be inserted in a shuttle vector. When using a
Shuttle-Plasmids wird dieses in pro- oder eukaryotische Zellen, vorzugsweise Bakterien, eingesetzt und vermehrt. Geeignet ist z.B. Escherichia coli K12 und dessen Abkömmlinge. Bakterien, die Fremd-DNS-haltige Plasmide enthalten, werden selektiert.Shuttle plasmids are used and propagated in pro- or eukaryotic cells, preferably bacteria. Suitable is e.g. Escherichia coli K12 and its descendants. Bacteria which contain plasmids containing foreign DNA are selected.
Wird die Fremd-DNS in das in Shuttle- Vektoren klonierte DNS-Fragment einge¬ setzt, werden diese vermehrt und selektiert.If the foreign DNA is inserted into the DNA fragment cloned into shuttle vectors, these are multiplied and selected.

It was characterized as a enveloped, hemagglutinating, approx. 200 nm large, single-stranded RNA virus which has the morphology of a paramyxovirus by electron microscopy. Proteins of this virus were recognized in the Western blot from an antiserum against a parainfluenza virus type 2 (Pl-2). In the same test system, an antiserum produced against the isolated virus recognized a Pl-2 strain "SV5", which shows the serological relationship of the isolated

Von der unter sterilen Bedingungen entnommenen Ferkellunge wurde ein Teil mit der Schere grob zerkleinert und einem enzymatischen Aufschluß in 0,25%-iger Trypsinlösung unterzogen. Die Trypsinierung erfolgte unterA portion of the piglet lung removed under sterile conditions was roughly crushed with scissors and subjected to enzymatic digestion in 0.25% trypsin solution. The trypsinization took place under
Rühren bei Raumtemperatur in 4 Stunden. Die groben Gewebsstücke wur¬ den in einem sterilen Gaze-Filter abgeschieden. Das Filtrat wurde dreimal bei niedertouriger Zentrifugation (1000 x g, 10 Minuten) in PBS gewa¬ schen. Die Zellen wurden in E-MEM und Zusatz von 5% FKS in einer Konzentration von 10 Zellen ml in SOcnr-Kulturflaschen ausgesät und beiStir at room temperature in 4 hours. The coarse pieces of tissue were separated in a sterile gauze filter. The filtrate was washed three times with low-speed centrifugation (1000 x g, 10 minutes) in PBS. The cells were seeded in E-MEM and addition of 5% FCS in a concentration of 10 cells ml in SOcnr culture bottles and at
37 °C inkubiert. Das Wachstumsmedium wurde alle 4 - 5 Tage ausge¬ wechselt. Das Wachstum dieser Primärkultur wurde täglich durch mikro¬ skopische Untersuchung beobachtet. Hierbei wurde insbesondere auf das Auftreten eines zytopathogenen Effekts (CPE) geachtet. Nach ca. 2 Wo- chen konnte ein CPE in Form von sich abrundenden, schrumpfenden Zellen mit langsamer Ausbreitungstendenz beobachtet werden. Der Kulturüber¬ stand der Primärzellen wurde 1: 10 mit Erhaltungsmedium verdünnt und auf konfluente Monolayer von PK- 15 -Zellkulturen in 80 cm2 -Kulturflaschen verimpft (Inkubationsvolumen: 40 ml). Zur Kontrolle wurde von jeder Zelle eine nicht-infizierte Kultur mitgeführt. Nach 7-tägiger Inkubation ent¬ wickelte sich ein CPE mit beginnender Lochbildung. Die Kultur wurde einem Frier-Tau-Prozeß unterworfen und der Überstand 1 :10 verdünnt auf eine frische Kultur verimpft, deren Überstand nach 6 - 7 Tagen im Hämag¬ glutinationstest unter Verwendung von Hühnererythrozyten geprüft wurde. In der 4. Passage wiesen die Kulturen nach 6-tägiger Inkubation annähernd zu 100%) einen zytopathogenen Effekt auf. Im Hämagglutinationstest positive Kulturüberstände wurden bei -70 °C eingelagert.
Beispiel 2Incubated at 37 ° C. The growth medium was changed every 4-5 days. The growth of this primary culture was observed daily by microscopic examination. Particular attention was paid to the appearance of a cytopathogenic effect (CPE). After about 2 weeks, a CPE in the form of rounded, shrinking cells with a slow tendency to spread could be observed. The culture supernatant of the primary cells was diluted 1:10 with maintenance medium and inoculated onto confluent monolayers of PK-15 cell cultures in 80 cm 2 culture bottles (incubation volume: 40 ml). A non-infected culture was carried from each cell as a control. After 7 days of incubation, a CPE developed with the start of hole formation. The culture was subjected to a freeze-thaw process and the supernatant was diluted 1:10 and inoculated into a fresh culture, the supernatant of which was tested after 6-7 days in the hemagglutination test using chicken erythrocytes. In the 4th passage, the cultures showed almost 100% cytopathogenic effect after 6 days of incubation. Culture supernatants positive in the hemagglutination test were stored at -70 ° C. Example 2
