CD-1,a genetically-engineered CHO cell line,was cultivated with a Biosilon microcarrier culture system.We successfully cultivated CD-1 cells to a very high density(over 1 ×107 cells/ml).Prourokinase was stably secreted at about 180IU/106 cells/24h.Experiments showed that CD-1 cells growing on Biosilon microcarriers were able to spontaneously release from the microcarriers,then reattach and proliferate on fresh microcarries.This makes it very easy to scale up production.The microcarries could be reused several times without affecting adhesion ,proliferation and prourokinase secretion.With CM-PECC membrane radial flow chromatography and MPG chromatography,the prouroknase in conditioned medium could be purfied to a specific activity of 1×105IU/mg of protein.The purification factor was about 600 fold,and approxiamately 90% of the biological activity was recovered.
