This study was initiated for optimization of the environment of a technologically useful mammalian cell line for high density production. Cultures of Vero cells on microcarriers were perfused with 100%, 50%, 25% and 12.5% modified L15 media (galactose was replaced with 10 mM-fructose, with 4 mM-glutamine and 5% foetal bovine serum) in phosphate-buffered saline at either 4 or 8 vol. day-1. Cell growth, pH, dissolved oxygen, and changes in the metabolites, lactate to pyruvate and lactate to ammonia indices, demonstrated that under the conditions used in the present study, perfusion of cultures with 50% L15 medium in PBS at 8 vol. day-1 provided the optimum microenvironment for Vero cell growth. The highest cell density in the perfused cultures was 3 X 10(7) cells ml-1, which at these conditions was ten times higher than the maximum cell density (3 X 10(6) cells ml-1) obtained in a batch culture. Nutrient supply and conditioning factors were the most probable growth-limiting factors in cultures that were perfused with 12.5% and 25% L15 media, while multilayering, limitation of available oxygen, and accumulation of metabolic end products in the cellular microenvironment were the most probable causes of a density-dependent inhibition of cell growth observed under the optimized and overfed (supply of 100% L15 medium at the rate of 8 vol. day-1) culture conditions. Under the optimized environmental condition, the major source of energy was probably glutamine during the first week. However, significant utilization of fructose became evident at higher cell densities during the second week, when lactate production dramatically declined and reached an almost undetectable level, while respiration progressively assumed the predominant role in energy production. It is postulated that ‘available’ oxygen in the multicell-layered microenvironment of the optimized cultures was higher than in the overfed culture due to the greater utilization rate of oxygen for oxidation of excess nutrients in the overfed culture.

The purified Vero cell rabies vaccine (PVRV; Verorab®, Sanofi Pasteur) has been used in rabies prevention since 1985. Evolving rabies vaccination trends, including shorter intradermal (ID) regimens with reduced volume, along with WHO recommendation for ID administration has driven recent ID PVRV regimen assessments. Thus, a consolidated review comparing immunogenicity of PVRV ID regimens during pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) and post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) is timely and beneficial in identifying gaps in current research. A search of seven databases for studies published from 1985 to November 2019 identified 35 studies. PrEP was assessed in 10 studies (n = 926) with 1–3-site, 1–3-visit regimens of up to 3-months duration. Seroconversion (rabies virus neutralizing antibodies [RVNA] ≥ 0.5 IU/mL) rates of 90–100% were reported within weeks, irrespective of regimen, with robust booster responses at 1 year (100% seroconversion rates by day 14 post-booster). However, data are lacking for the current WHO-recommended, 2-site, 1-week ID PrEP regimen. PEP was assessed in 25 studies (n = 2136) across regimens of 1-week to 90-day duration. All ID PEP regimens assessed induced ≥ 99% seroconversion rates (except in HIV participants) by day 14–28. This review confirms ID PVRV suitability for rabies prophylaxis and highlights the heterogeneity of use in the field.

Aim: In this study, we have used enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) as an alternative test to replace the cumbersome rapid fluorescent focus inhibition test (RFFIT) to ascertain the immune status of immunized mice against rabies virus. Materials and Methods: Rabies is a devastating disease worldwide caused by rabies virus. Proper usage of pre- or post-exposure rabies vaccine can prevent the disease transmission. In this study, mice were immunized with Vero cell-adapted inactivated rabies vaccine. RFFIT was used as a test to determine the serum neutralizing titers in infected/vaccinated mice. Seroprofiling of mice sera was done in vitro by ELISA. Results: Twenty-one days post-immunization, both ELISA and RFFIT assays indicated similar antibody levels in mice sera that were immunized with Vero cell-adapted inactivated rabies vaccine. Both the tests were correlated, and the linearity was verified by the regression line (R2=0.979). Conclusion: In this study, we profiled the serological status of Vero cell-adapted inactivated rabies vaccine through ELISA in mice model that correlated well with the OIE gold standard test RFFIT.

Rabies is a 100% vaccine-preventable disease. A cheap, rabies vaccine for humans that could be used in mass vaccination campaigns would be a valuable weapon against rabies. Despite the existence of safe and effective vaccines, rabies disease still causes an estimated more human deaths a year in the endemic areas in Asia and Africa. Rabies virus is single stranded negative sense RNA from genus lyssavirus and _ family rhabdoviridae.
