  • Patent number: 9119806
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of interferon in the in vitro cultivation of animal circular ssDNA virus such as Porcine Circovirus 2 or human TT virus in an animal cell line. Increased titres of animal circular ssDNA virus are obtained by addition of interferons or agents which ensure the production of endogenous interferons by said cell line and/or by the reduction of endosomal-lysosomal system acidification.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 28, 2009
    Date of Patent: September 1, 2015
    Inventors: Hans Nauwynck, Gerald Misinzo, Sven Arnouts

  • Publication number: 20080226594
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of interferon in the in vitro cultivation of animal circular ssDNA virus such as Porcine Circovirus 2 or human TT virus in an animal cell line. Increased titres of animal circular ssDNA virus are obtained by one or more of the following conditions: addition of interferons or agents which ensure the production of endogenous interferons by said cell line, reduction of endosomal-lysosomal system acidification, and cholesterol depletion.
