Abstract

Heliothis zea (HzAM1) insect cells were immobilized in microspheres by sodium-cellulosesulfate (NaCS) and polydiallyldimethylammoniumchloride (PDADMAC). The highest HzAMl cell density was $7.5{\times}10^7$ cells/mL in the microspheres. After infection of the immobilized cells by Heliothis zea single nuclear polyhedrosis virus (HzSNPV), the highest concentration of HzSNPV (polyhedral inclusion bodies: PIBs) produced was $2.87{\times}10^{10}$ PIBs/mL in the microspheres.
