Notes

Origin: established from the breed/subspecies: J125; Growth characteristics: population doubling times ranged from 3 to 3.5 days; Karyology: mainly of cells with 91-110 chromosomes;Growth characteristics: best condition at the culture temperature of 28 Celsius; optimum cell growth was observed at 10% fetal bovine serum; Unique properties: contained lipids and glycogen granules, comparatively undifferentiated; cell line could be used for the production of useful proteins or to control pests using baculoviruses.
